Interestingly, the 1946 edition of the history textbook Etihash Parichaya (Introduction to History) used in Bengal for the 5th and 6th graders states: "If Aurangzeb had the intention of demolishing temples to make way for mosques, there would not have been a single temple standing erect in India. On the contrary, Aurangzeb donated huge estates for use as Temple sites and support thereof in Benares, Kashmir and elsewhere. The official documentations for these land grants are still extant."

Mike Sometimes you say that Aurangzeb was razing temples because they had become brothels and here you are saying Aurangzeb was giving land for temples i.e land to build brothels. You have the habit of contradicting yourself. It shows you have lost your senses and yeah intelligence you never had.
