I didn't consider Hinduism as a religion at all. Hinduism as a religion came into existence when only the other challenging faiths came into it's contact. Imagine you have a house in a remote forest. You will not bother how richly it's decorated. there is no status struggle. When someone builds a house in you vicinity, then the real struggle for comparison starts. That's what happened with the social or religious practices of Indian subcontinent. We atleast can accept christianity came into existence around 2000 years ago and islam 1300 years ago. Why wasn't any such religion born in India?
