While a Hindu fundamentalist may not agree with Christianity they will not kill people. Hindusim is the most peaceful religion on earth with almost no history of killing people and forcing them to convert to Christianity.
The problem is radical Islam which has a track record of killing people and their religion endorses it. There is no text anywhere in Hinduism which even remotely suggests killing people that do no agree with you. There are absolutely some abhorrent social practices still practised in remote villages, however Hinduism unlike Islam is very open to change and things have got drastically better every year.
