You bring a maulvi in between God and man. Hinduism doesnt emphasize on maulvis or priests. Maulvis and Priests are Human beings. All Humans have the six evils: Kaama (Lust), Krodha (Anger), Lobha (Narrow midedness), Mada(Arrogance), Moha (Love) and Matsara (Jealous). Thats why we cannot treat Maulvis as Gods or messengers of Gods. The Idol that we worship embodies all the Good virtues of the God. Since we cannot see a God, the Idol symbolizes God and people pay their respect for the same. Hinduism, though Old, simplifies worshipping God. There are no complexities. There are no ONE TRUTHs like Islam. Monotheistic religions like Islam are doomed by their very nature of One truth.

Anand Kumar, I would like to inform that you have been misguided by sombody. There is no one in between God and man. This is basic teaching of Islam. As per your words Gods also had kama krodha Lobha moha matsara all. Kama- one god grabed the dress of bathing girls and hidden in the tree branches and enjoying their beauty. can we tell this as kama? Krodha - i hope you have read Geethopadesam. Lobha -- one god had three sons. one of them born to a servant maid. Although he was talented he was sidelined because he was a son of servant maid. Moha - read mohini vesham of one god

you yourself know that you can justify your words. Still you keep on telling? Islam has faced many people like you and it is the newer religion compared to others and the second biggest religion in the world and still growing.

"The Idol that we worship embodies all the Good virtues of the God. Since we cannot see a God, the Idol symbolizes God and people pay their respect for the same."-- This is your statement.
a couple of months back there was a festival. Hindus made big big idols pryed night and day. After 10 days they took the idol in a procession to the sea and dipped the idol there. After that a group of people rushed to the idol beat the idol with enthuciasm and broke into pieces. next day morning the pieces of the idol's broken face limbs were found in rubbish. In fact i am giving a picture some what decently. but the happening was still bad.

If you are talking about Krishna sir, then he was not God. He was a prophet. He was a messenger of God. Just like Mohammed who had paedophile qualities and cannot quite be called God. Mohammed is not even a prophet, by the way

Muslims are misguided that God has a special place somewehere and he lives there. They dont know whatever objects they see in this universe contain God. Hinduism teaches this.
Hindus worship everything, sun, earth, tree, water etc. Because they accept that everywhere God is present.

What a religion preach is known from the action of its followers. Muslims are fighting against Budhists (demolition of Bamiyan Budha), Jews, Christians, Sikhs (killed thousands during partition) , Hindus.
Islam does not preach peaceful living with others. Whereever muslims are in majority they torture & kill the minority. Example Malayasia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan.
If your religion is so great, then why Shia and Sunni are killing each other in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan. Why there is discremination against women to allow into Masjid?
