People jump to conclusion without knowing the facts. Hinduism is a way of life. it follows a pattern of life which has Hierarchy where ther is a place for each community and work was split accordingly. these are time tested methods. i do agree with time we have to change. but you cannot change the basic Philosophy and tenets of hinduism. let us not debate which religion is better.
Hindus are tolerent to the extreme. people who critisize hindus are hindus. but we have given time, space for other religion to grow and florish unlike other faiths which practise harsh extremes.
dont try to run down practises which have been there for 5000 years no other religion can claim the depth and knowledge which hinduism has.
people who have little or no knowledge or have ultirior motives are behind making a issue where none existed.
