Idol worshis just ba means of concentrating your devotion and connecting with the almighty ... in vedas you can worship through bhakti (idol worship) or thru meditation ...
BUT PLEASE BAN THE CULT OF THE PEDDO* MURDERER RAP*IST MUHAMMED - THE BANE OF ALL PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD
ps RESEARCH ABOUT ADVAITISM BEFORE TEACHING HINDUS ABOUT 1 GOD ... HINDUS BELIEVE IN THE 1 GOD - REPRESENTED THRU THE TRINITY AND THEIR INCARNATIONS (RAMA FROM VISHNU, HANUMAN FROM SHIVA, ETC)
Idol worship is just a means of concentrating your devotion and connecting with the almighty ... in vedas you can worship through bhakti (idol worship) or thru meditation ...
BUT PLEASE BAN THE CULT OF THE PEDDO* MURDERER RAP*IST MUHAMMED - THE BANE OF ALL PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD

Do u know that the Holy Book of that same religion has the exact speed of light (Rig Veda), gives formulae for exact medicinal herbs (Yajur Veda), contains references to General Theory of Relativity (Upanishads )?
Bible talks of a stationary earth (remember the fate of galileo), quran is of course the biggest joke

as far as vedas is concerned they are not indian scriptures...they were brought to india by aryans from central asia.
In this verse sun is referred to with respect saying that sunlight moves 2202 Yojans in Half Nimish. Yojan is quite a common unit in India. It means 4 KOSE, each kose measuring 8000 BRITISH YARDS AND EACH YARD MEASURING 0.9144 M.
When calculated, its equal to the speed of 186,000 miles per second
Scenario 1: 1) You choose your driver... Also have you ever heard of Pilot and co-Pilot? Have you ever heard of space missions where there are many astronauts with different roles to play? - That means we can have different Gods playing different roles in life. But you will not get it. 2) There is no such thing as God X says this and God Y says that... We do not have such things as one God said this and other said opposite. They have different roles and reasons to be there.
3) Be aware that there is a concept of only one God in Hinduism also. But at the same time Hinduism accepts that he can have many forms and can be present and seen/felt in many ways. Hinduism also says that there are many paths, but they lead to only one Supreme God, and again it allows people to see him differently and use different names/means for him.
That is the beauty of Hinduism, it does not force a specific God and his 'messanger' on you. It accepts other believes and honors them.
But you being side-blinded like a donkey or mule will not be able to see other's facts.

The flaw (or point) in ur argument is that everything is questionable or "everything is relative". Scenario 1 is based essential food items available at the different parts of the earth, like grasslands, extreme cold & hot climates, etc... Here the religious rules are modified to suit the existence of life or the accepted fact becomes the religious rule.
Scenario 2 is egoistic clashes, when people in the scenario 1 from different places come face to face with each other. It is here, that the flaws in our thinking is reflected by the bloated ego of the human mind, which simply doesn't understand and the result the spillage of blood.
Your Truth is questionable and as questionable as you question others. Besides, the other most major flaw in our thinking is "There is ONLY ONE GOD" concept. What if mankind didn't exist, do you think GOD would exist?
