While i appreciate Mr Gautier's concerns, I wish to add that Hinduism does note believe in issuing edicts and the kind. There is no such thing as ONE GOD, ONE RULER etc in Hinduism.
The beauty of HInduism (or so it is called. its actually SANATHANA DHARMA) is its flexibility.
you can choose any path you want but the ultimate goal must be to attain salvation, be it advaita, dvaita or visihtadvaita etc.....
the only drawback of this is that some ppl tend to misuse this and con gullible ppl....but that i wud say is due to kali yuga....
fear not, this religion (a misnomer) shall not die and shall continue to exist till such time the mountains exist in this earth, the oceans remain, the stars shine.........
it has survived past turbulances and will do so in the future....
