Re: Is Hinduism a ‘Universal’ Religion'?
Since you seem to know so much about India and Hindus, I will ask you some questions.
You say Muslims don't fight like Hindus. I can understand this in two ways- you are probably saying that Hindus fight against other religion, or maybe they fight against themselves, much more than Muslims. The first possibility is ruled out coz Hinduism never expanded the way Islam did, by the sword. In fact, it never quite expanded at all.
Regarding the second possibility, can you enlighten me by showing a SINGLE example of Shaivites killing Vaishnavas, etc....?( Don't think abt Caste system- that's a social evil, which makes it quite different from sectarian violence)
Bhai
Seekh taako deejiye jaako seekh suhaye,
Seekh na deeje vanara jo ghar bahi jaaye.
You educate a person who deserves to be educated.
Don't educate a monkey who can destroy your abode (Remember ancient folk tale 'Monkey and the Weaver Bird').
Some people wear lenses of hatred and are hard wired for hatred and animosity. I have several Muslims friends and none of them have such attitudes. People don't understand that hating others also inflicts damage on them.
