This article “stinks” to high Heaven. Hinduism prescribes the eternal duties, such as honesty, refraining from injuring living beings (ahimsa), patience, forbearance, self-restraint, compassion, among others.

It isn’t the only one I’ve found. There have been other ‘attacks’ in various locations in India, not just in northeast India.

As for “ahimsa”, I assume that means NOT beating Christian children nearly to death with sticks, right? So they must not be good Hindus, or am I wrong?

Apparently some are in disagreement of those teachings......A mob of about 100 Hindu extremists armed with swords, bamboo sticks and stones attacked Christians who were eating after a service at 8 p.m. on April 17 in Amtola village, Golpara District, Assam state, church leaders said. At least 15 Christians were injured, many of them wounded on their heads and upper bodies.

“The village elders are against the Christians and under the influence of Hindu extremist groups,” Baglary added. “This time, the Hindu extremists used the extended Rabha family against the Christians. They instigated the rest of the clan against them, so the Rabha family led the attack with the Hindu extremists and villagers following them.”

Police arrived well after the mob had beaten the Christians and had burned their homes, Boro said.

“They simply arrested two Christians who had been beaten a lot and taken to prison, while they took no action against the attackers or their leaders,” Boro said.

I agree. Hindus aren't taught to murder anything, unlike slime.

This "report" smells like taquiya.

You mean like the Hindu extremist who murdered Gandhi?

Hinduism is not so much a religion as a galaxy of religions. Various groups have little in common with each other. Some of the Tantric groups prescribe intentionally violating the eternal duties you mention. To be fair, various “Christian” groups have done the same.

The subject of the Bhagavad Gita, after all, is the religious duty of a warrior to fight.
