Re: Is Hinduism a followable religion in the modern world?
Modern India is nearly 58 years old, and still you cannot explain why a thousands year old Hindu caste system still exists. Here is what the rabidly independent National Geographic news said some years ago:-
**“Statistics compiled by India’s National Crime Records Bureau indicate that in the year 2000, the last year for which figures are available, 25,455 crimes were committed against Dalits. Every hour two Dalits are assaulted; every day three Dalit women are raped, two Dalits are murdered, and two Dalit homes are torched.” **
That is what India has ‘achieved’ after 50 plus years, and that is why until you totally tackle the Hindu caste system head on, you will never see an end to this religious-based/social discrimination and persecution.
dalits and sudras also kille brahmins always but you never hear about it. varna system gives good order in society but should not mean fighting and killings which is only done by politcians.
