According to your logic, every body who practices Hinduism should be hating one another. Is it not great that you are still alive, among so many people who hate one another? The way i see it is that Hinduism is great enough to accept retarded people to live among it.

what are u guys up to? give urself a break. the topic was indian entrepreneurial success. u guys should be ashamed u even keep such a crappy subject going for such an interesting topic. the reason why india has been lagging for centuries is because of such internal infightings on triffling subjects like religions and religionalism which divide us.

Is Islam unconstitutional bcoz Shiria law is bull crap? Stoning women, cutting off body parts and not to forget that freaking talaq talaq and talaq. Dont forget that if you go into the core of any religion they segregate. It is for we as people to realize what we accept and what we dont when following a religion.

its time u update ur self with wat hinduism is, hidusim gives the luxury of being a aeithist , whiele still being a hindu, where as other religions donot do so!!! as ur thrown out of the so called society if u behave as atheist, accrdoing to the indian law, U are a "hindu" if u are not a muslim, christian, zorastrian and for that matter if u donot belong by birth to any religion, tell me whichther religion gives u such an option, I guess ur not well versed with ur history pls go n read it, it was the brtishers who were the main culprits to divide the indian pple, and the castes and creed was created amongst the hindus in the ancient times based on the occupation , and pple of each caste coexisted in peace becos each one required the services of the other, and thus the indian civilization flourished, correct ur facts , donot go by wat pple say, reaD the texts first, pple say 101 things but they may not be accurate as u think so, u may verify my statements too

Hey buddy.. are you some kindda alien ??
Have you ever looked at history properly..
well Brits came to India in 16th Cent. But Hinduism is reported to exist for 30 centuries. Was it the Brits who brought Untouchability to India.. and seperation of the manking based on the work they do??
It is Aaryans.. who claim themselves to be the elite and called themselves as Brahmins.. the uper caste. so that they can enjoy the power by fooling the rest of us. Brits used the caste for their own. Tell me 100 yrs back which community had the privileage of education - it is the Brahmins.. only after the Brtis came inside the country there were schools and colleges.. accessible for people all caste.

You clearly don't know what Hinduism stands for. Hinduism stands for two aspects 1. Religion itself and the other 2. Complex culture generated with many social elements. If you are talking about religion, you are completely under wrong impression. Bhagwat Geeta clearly says "Chaturvarnam (Brhamin, Kshatriya, Vaisya, Shudra) maya krutva Gun (qualities you possess) Karma (Your deeds) vibhagashaha (classification). It means GOD clearly says your Karma and qualities are more important than your birth. In many another verses GOD clearly says, "No only everyone is equal to the GOD, but their own faiths are established by GOD himself. And all faiths ultimately come to HIM just like all rivers flowing in different directions ultimately reach the same ocean.". In very old examples, Valmiki was a thief. But, when he realised his mistakes he became sage through his Karma. The social structure that we see today is a result of complex local and political situations people have gone through in 1000s of years of history. But that is not supported by Hindu religion.
In fact, Hinduism stands for equality and tolerance. India was a great land of opportunity like US today. They welcomed foreigners, adopted their culture, accepted their knowledge because they believed in principles of Hinduism.
In general, it is not the religion that defines our social behaviour. Would you call the behaviour of cricket fans as religious? I think, it is merely a result of complex history that India has got. All other major religions too have internal cast systems and they do hate each other. So, I don't think, blaming Hinduism is appropriate.

Go and take out the police records from all over India and see who does what to the oppressed and then come to conclusion, the fact is, the depressed classes face discrimination in education,administration and business from all the upper castes...even the one which is just above them. Brahmins are the scapegaots by the other upper castes.

almost all of the religions are crap anyways....culture is nothing but a way of living..which people are reluctant to change for good...basically wanting to have control on their younger generations. have an open mind..you can experience life better.

Hinduism is a way of life. It never arrogantly say it is only religion in the world to reach god that other religion does. It beleives in do your duty. Your duty is worship and never encourges blaming other religion. It is the tolerant religion towards other religion. Regarding the practices and caste system, no where in scripotures
