FYI I am not converted. My forefathers have been christians for 200 years.
And I do not think that it is a crime to convert to christianity.
Hinduism is nothing but a kind of paganism wiped out in the rest of the world.
I do not consider hinduism as a single religion but mixture of many religions which even contradict with each other.
I dislike idol worship, myths, superstions, casteism in hinduism.

Virgin woman can give birth if God wishes because God is Almighty. He can do whatever we feel impossible. Otherwise what is the difference between humans and God?
BTW I want to remind you that Karna's birth is said to be virgin birth.

You are talking like a child.
There is nothing wrong in building a bridge.

You hate idol worship ?
But why do you respect the cross - it is also just a symbol - like an idol.

Cape Camorin, you talked about ancient. I will talk about recent times. Mahatma Gandhi was thrown by Christians, bcoz he was black. Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela were tortured by Christians, bcoz they were black. Our Bhajji was wrongly implicated by Australian christians, bcoz of racial feelings.

I do not want to follow a religion simply becasue that ancenstors followed it.
Our ancestors believed in many superstitions. And they have been proved false now. Should I still believe them? You must have heard in Tamilnadu people said that there is a old woman in the moon. Now we know that it is nothing but an image of ups and downs in the moon.

And it is not wise to attribute a religion to a particular country. Religion has no boundaries: state,country,continent,etc.

Sandal brigand Veerapan was a hindu. Gotse was a hindu. Can I attribute their wrong doings to hinduism? There are some criminals among christianity. Does it because of christianity? Jesus never asked His followers to be criminals.
Racism is not supported by christianity. If somebody did it's his mistake. For that do not blame the religion.

Many hindus whom I have argued are wandering within a particular circle. They don't think beyond that.
Christianity is for every individual. It is not for a particular race or country.
I have guts to say that the ideology originated in my soil is irrational and anti-human.
I am not ashamed of accepting this truth.

what is so great in christianity??
its just about sins and saving from sins!!
why should god kill himself on the cross to save his own creations from his own wrath??
why should the whole humanity should suffer, just because a person who never existed ate a forbidden apple??

Read Genesis.
The world was created in the beginning. What is the beginning? Only God knows.
I do not believe in carbon-dating.

Not only dead sea scrolls there are tablets written by sumerians (not jews).
And there are many books written by non-christians to prove the existence of Jesus.

There are sites like christiananswers(DOT)net.
And google using keyword dead sea scrolls you will get relevant info.

I am reading a book on arhaelogical eviences for bible. But I could not recall now as I just started. Probably within few days I will be able to reveal what I learnt.

u said evidences ,i know abt dead sea scrolls ..they r just ancient writings ....

all i wanted is concrete evidences foe the existence of all the alleged prophets of xtainity ....
if dead sea scrolls is taken as evidence ,then Mahabharata and Ramayana are far better evidences to prove Lord Ram and lord krsna

hinduism is not based on some authority...
we dont bother if rama and krishna existed..
they are supposed to be incarnations who spread the teachings of the vedas..
vedas are the core of hinduism,

even if the whole history is proved wrong for hinduism, it will surive because it is constant search to know who he is and follow dharma and know his relationship with ultimate truth and reality.
