I feel appalled that there is so much of hatred that is being displayed by one Indian against another. We are all children of God and we should stop stooping to the level of accusing each other's religions etc..
When India is zooming ahead in the economic world, we should unitedly work towards taking our place in the sun, rather than just getting at each other's throats.
When we get closer to God, we will realise that we have to forgive even our worst enemies, since, as humans, we have no control of anything really. As children of God, we need to live in peace with one another rather than espouse hatred.
May better sense prevail. We have always been a tolerant nation and that is why we have survived years and years of lack of education etc. It would be foolish if we forget that and move away from that since tolerance and love are the basics of an enlightened society.
May God bless us all. Let us forgive and love one another.

I agree with you. But is there any Muslim or Christian who is willing to live peacefully side-by-side with a Hindu or Buddhist or Jain or a Sikh without prozelitizing or forcibly-converting them?
I really feel sry for muslims. I know countless muslim friends who can either be a fanatic religious person or an atheist because they understand their religion is too stupid to follow but their ego prevents them from adopting other faith.
If there is a muslim or a christian who would never ever interfere with my business and my religion, I am willing to live next to them. Otherwise, if war is what they want, war is what us Hindus should give them to protect out secularism.

Xtian groups did more damage to world peace, culture than even muslim invaders.
Look at Europe, both Americas, Africa, australia. All traces of indigeneous culture, tolerance are wiped out.

Xians are only 2% in India against 12% muslims and 82% hindus. But they run the maximum no. of social welfare institutions - be it primary schools, primary health centres, homes for physically handicapped, downtrodden, destitutes, mentally ill patients - majority utilised by non-christians, esp. hindus. Pl think what muslims have done to you, except kill you. can you go and speak against islam in Kashmir. You can do that in goa / kerala / north east. But still i think you hate xtians, because basically of your weakness. we love you non-christians as jesus has taught us. and we do not consider you as khaffirs, good for slaughter only. God bless you.

Bhaskar Chattopadhyay, Hi
You write good stuff. Somethings you have written here is not known to many people. I am avering to organized Christianity and their designs. I was informed by a (ex)nun sometime back when I met her at NYC that Muslimes are far better than Xtians....Muslims are openly anti-Hindu and anti-India but Xtians are like white ants they will finish off India without anyone knowing about it....no doubt missionaries are successful in converting.....AP under the present Xtian CM Y Samuel R Reddy ahs taken upon himself to plant churches in all villages in AP to to aid cover/overt conversion activities....

I fully agree with you statement "These two organized religion has killed most people in the world in the name of religion. " but most of these killings have been done for political gains and not because of religion.
It is because of narrowminded followers and not because of religion. Religion does not tell you to go and slit somone's throat.
I don%u2019t understand what do you mean by idiotic monopoly. If any idiotic monopoly teaches you to be honest and good, I don%u2019t see any reason in not accepting it.

God is one, ok. But which one? Hindus dont mind a multitude of gods. But semitic religions say their god alone is god. That is the problem.

I am an athiest. However - only Hinduism is the only religion which does not restrict a person from believing in any god or gods including Jesus or Allah. Religions which have a montheistic philosphy tend to be absolutists by definition and will impose their beliefs and book on others. Kaffirs , Heathens - whatever. Christianity has been overtaken by secular principles in Europe ( not so in America though ) and hence seems very benign today... but give it a free riegn and you won't find much difference between Islam and Christianity. Notwithstanding the other cheek bit ..

Bhaskar, You will not understand it. Let me explain you. If you know anything about these religions then you must know that these religions talk about same set of events and prophets before Moses. These religions stops you worshipping genitals, mountains, rivers, and all the living/dead or objects who you worship just because either you get benefited from the or scared of them. These all religions talk about just one GOD and not Gods. Moses/Jesus((PBUH) or Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) are the messengers of GOD and not the GOD themselves. You argument is void because there is ONLY one GOD and not set of Gods/GODs
Yeah I know truth hurts cause your ideology is based on fabrications and lies.
