we, the hindus, must remember india,afganisthan, pakistan,bangladesh,nepal,burma are all what constitute the bharatbarsha, a completely hindu state.other than 1% or so muslims,all the muslims in bharatbarsha are convert hindus.government should declare bharatbarsha as a hindu state and all these nations must unite.hinduism is an extremely versatile religion. unlike islam which is just a penal code,hinduism is based on very deep seated thoughts on how to achieve god.hinduism accepts idol worship, hinduism accepts brahma, the highest level of human mind, is the god, it has no shape and it also may have shape.human beings are too insignificant to say idols do not represent god. swami vivekananda said when a hindu worships an idol, the hymns he recites from vedas or vedantas or upnashidas or puranas are all directed towards the god, the almighty, the omnipresent and the supreme.are we really so great to say god is shapeless ? ramkrishnadev told eashwar is like the water of an ocean which has no shape, but in the cold it freezes into a shaped ice, both are one and the same. hinduism has totally accommodated jainism, buddhism,sikhism,christanity,the persis. invaders like the huns and others all got assimmilated with the culture of bharatbarsha, the greeks never broke or destroyed any place of worship in this great country.it is only the muslim invaders who always remained isolated from the culture of this great nation with notable exceptions of akbar and darasiko for which they had

It will be wrong to declare India as a Hindu state. If you see the developed nations and several progressive countries are secular. Countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan which are Islamic states are entangled with their own internal problems and other Islamic countries churning out terrorists in large numbers. A secular image and thinkin is not only sensible but a realistic one. We dont want riots or disruptions in our country when we are doing so good.
Ram existed in an epic called Ramayan, now over the ages this popular epic was heard by people and since it potrays a perfect man, it became natural for women of this country to worship him as a perfect man. For Guys he was Uttam purush...a strong, sensible and caring person and wished to be like him. When something is followed, practised over a long period of time...Epic turns into belief....and that belief turns to reality. If you have to worship someone as God then why not worship Mahatma Gandhi who did more for this country rather than RAM who have created a divide between moderate and Fundamentalist Hindus. Why not worship Swami Vivekananda who were for real.

Gandhi and Swami vivekanada will soon be made like RAM too. They are tollerated just to get the conversion agenda completed in silence in the name of Jesus, but in reality a crusade with no normal weapons.
The problem is in that case, why dont muslims and chritians too drop their holy books in Indian ocean and start worshipping gandhiji, swami-vevekanda, sister-nivedita, saint-kabir and Mother-terasa
Why Jesus, the son of GOD, there in much proof to prove that he is son of GOD if at all he existed if argued with ur same logic. Also a mother-terasa is just expired atleast someone know her. Why dont u throw away all Jesus photos and install mother-teresa photos.
My dear, for an agnostic, it all can be belief. But an agnostic also should be unbiased. Then he should demand it for all religions including Jesus and ALLA religions.
But no religion need to comply by u, just because u are an atheist incase. If I call ur mother a w-itch I dont think, u will like it.
So dont use logic in a distorted way. The basic logic of logic is that it should be logical, got it???
