I think it is essential to pass on this message. Hinduism is a complex religion. It does not stand on one Ram or one Krishna or any of the kind. It is based on principles. Swami Vivekanada said that. Read his books to understand Hinduism. Derogating Hinduism has started from the prehistoric times from the age of islamic invasion and did not end till now with the Italian Government. But do not worry my fellow Indian, history says everytime a threat to Hinduism came, it grew up with new power. See today howmany coutries have ISKON and Ramkrishna mission. SO breaking one Ramsetu will only make us discover 1000 archaeological evidences from Dwarka, and throughout the world. One day truth will come up and people will see Vatikan, Kaba, Tajmahal all started with Hinduism. So do not be afraid my friends, it is just matter of time. Truth will survive.

Hinduism is not a religion but a cultural entity. In India's long history, there were many religions in different times. Todays Hundutva has only one thing in common, hatred of Islam. Because Islam put a solid dent on upper class hegamony and thousands of years of injustice to lower class

derc cruse, you right in what u said - its complex. But within that complexity - I will elaborate it very breifely - comes the argument to counter such outright questioning of Ram. At layman's level, then what comes next? Destruction of all temples of Ram because ur own govt just proved Ram does not exist?
AbdulHaque Shaikh, ur knowledge of history is still as perpetuated by the Marxist propoganda. Vedic civilization has existed from almost 6500 BC, proved by many scietific findings such as the 1990s satellite mappings of river sarsvati to the computer models of Nakhstras depicted in Vedas.
And yes, its other ways round - its Islam that teaches hatred of all religions including hinduism with its concept of Kafir, kill the idoltors, jihad etc.
Thought I admire ur audacity to post an outright lie.

Vedic religion has nothing to do with the Brahmin religion that was established by Shakra Charya 1400 hundred years ago, destroyed Budhism and enslaved majority of Indians by religios edicts of oppressive cast system. If you know veda it talks about one creator. Manu is same person prophet Nuh or Noha. His story of great flood is described in Quran, Upnishad and Bible.

And just for the record, today's caste system has no meaning - its not a fluid social order which earlier was NOT based on birth.
Its degenrated system that needs to be abolished, and at the very best completely discarded till its original validity is understood - which again was NOT BY BIRTH.
So Abdul, tell me are u open to remove the word kafir from quran?

Kafir is a very out of context used word, unfortunately by muslims. Kafir means somebody who hides the truth. It is not a derogetory word and should not be used in a derogetory manner against non-muslims. This is against Islam.
Quran is the word of God. We cannot remove/add/modify even a single letter from it.

If lower class had come to Islam because of persecution.Why there are still the so called lower class people.900 years of muslim rule should have converted all so called lower class people. The percentage of so called lower class people remains the same for centuries. You dumbhead Hinduism is more complex than you think. Fanatic nuts like you will never understand it. Better come back to your original religion, maybe you will start to understand it

ISLAM put a dent so that now the DRAMA of MURDER between SHIAS and SUNNIS could be started. Even after 1300 years of their so called Prophet these Worhsippers of one GOD can't arrive to the conculsion who is the right successor to the MAN whom ALLAH Appeared - surprisingly Most Muslims are killed by Muslims and by any other Religion?
Hindus despite worshipping so many Gods have never killed each other in the name of God?

And fully justified.We have to remain suspicious and vigilant about the dirty games of Islam and Christianity.You guys learn from Parsees.Zorastrains were and still are persecuted in Iran because Islam is no low and intolerant to other faiths.
Grow up man. Caste system is not made by religion. It is a social bias. Krishna himself said in geeta our society is divided based on guna or karma, not by birth. Now you tell me, as you said Hindus hate muslims, which muslim saint went to Hindu temple and prayed to Rama/Krishna-none. But Sri Ramkrishna went to Masjid to pray to allah and said all the paths are right. See-this is what is called Hinduism which teaches love and tolerance. So wake up and make better India by killing these terrorists that lives within your community. Or else, India will be another Israel

The word kafir means who doesnt belive in almighty god, the creator. You can say an atheist. Everybody will judged at the day of judgement . For kafir its hell fire. It doesnt mean u go and kill a kafir.

How many years after Mohammed was the Koran written ? Mohammed was illiterate and never did write a Word?
Which means it was written after his death? By whom? By remembering is it? After 300 years meanings would have been changed - words changed ? Grow up - U R right no error in Koran because its full of mistakes
