But alas there is no single Hindu country in the world.. every thing is made secular, saying that we should have freedom to practice and preach other religions

It is the guts of only Hindus to declare Nepal the only country of Hindus as secular equal for all. We hindus are not sheep. We do not follow fatwas. Thank god, we believe in invidual effort not combined effort as combined effort cannot ensure brilliance in children.
It is hindu children wordlwide who top in US, UK, Canada and whereever they are. In last 50 years it is only because of wise hindus country has grown from ash to top. Those who think that they will meet Jesus or Allah are the most stupid people. Muslims like smelling farts of their fellow brothers.

Mr.sitaram sakthi, hinduism is not a religion in its narrow sense. There is no need for any "protector" nor a kingdom for hinduism to survive. Hinduism has survived the onslaught of Semitic religions for nearly 1000 years. Still the majority in our Country are following the indignous religions. That itself is proof of the inherent strength of our culture.
In reality the Word Hindu was the Persian word for Sindhu and the people of the Indus valley civilization becomes Hindu and Indian. Persia was Zorostarian and India/Afghanistan/Pakistan/Bangladesh/Indonesia/Malaysia was Hindu before the Islamic conquests and forced conversions. Hinduism being a Sanatana dharma can accept any positive things into its fold.

Idiot, MMS didn't say this. It was the transcript of his speech by Americans. Do you think at this point of time he will make such a gaffe.
