In a way. There are elements that appear to be Shiv Lingua worship in the Jewish Bible. And much of Mithras sect was adopted in early Christianity, because Mithras was god of the Romans. Mithras was Vedic Sun God, and later part of Zoroastrian faith before being passed to the Romans.

Before Islam, the worship was for three goddesses, daughters of male god called Allah. The goddess followed by Muhammad's tribe Quaryasha was called al-Uzza, or Venus. Much of Islam is common with the old and new testaments.

Here is where they Fit in our Scheme

In pure form

One is Devotional Path of Madhva, Ramanuja, Vllabha.(Qualified Vashistha- Dvaita,God and
Human).

The other May be close to Shankara's Advaita.

But in practice- Look at Midle East and Western Europe's History- Last Two World war, Including Lesser one in Vietnam and Presently in Iraq.

Killing Close to Million, unarmed Civilian- That's what we need to discuss and not any other Secred Subject.

They say Even Jesus came to INDIA to learn What is Real Religion Means.

Don't Argue with our own Country men, at present
they neither know their Past or History and Current state of mind of Their own Faith.

I have Been to East of INDIA and also In WEST of INDIA.

Yes sir, Christianity in India and islam is India known as Hinduism . All the religion in india are hindu religion. That is how britishers defined it. Hindu word did not exists in any veda, ramayana or any epic. it is brand new modern word for sarva dharama.

but now some ram bhakt claim Hinduism only belongs to Ram, not even jesus, or murugar or allah. how it can be .

History or Mythology is besides the point...You can't take out the faith of majority by your illogical reasons and make them 'proselytes'...Get a life!

faith is illusion or supersition, but not science or evidence. We believe in harry potter too.

is untouchability and Devdasi(temple prostitution) part of Ram Rajya or Brahmnic religion ( not hinduism, as hinduism was formed 500 years ago by britishers)
