Methinks Hindus are not the ones to worry about.
In India, they are. Muslims and Christians get along rather well there, largely due to the Hindu fanatics.

The protestors were merely showing their bigotry. There are many reasons why America doesn't have a state religion, and people like them are one of the biggest ones.

The Senate has rules. Guests in the galleries should respect them.

As far as a Hindu offering a prayer goes, just remember that every day Teddy Kennedy and Chucky Schumer can walk in there and desecrate the Senate chambers to the degree they can be desecrated.

The chaplain is the least of our worries.

Anyone who wishes only peace for me is OK in my book.

If Hinduism works for them, and they leave me alone, I’ll welcome them as neighbors.

Who can say it better than the great George Washington in his letter to the Hebrews?

“Every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree, and there shall be none to make him afraid. May the father of all mercies scatter light and not darkness in our paths, and make us all in our several vocations useful here, and in his own due time and way everlastingly happy.”

G. Washington, Letter to the Hebrew Congregation
Newport Rhode Island, August 1790.

Amen.

In India, funny thing is, muslims and christians get along well politically on account of both of them being religious minorities. That means they vote almost similarly.

But we dont get along well with them “socially”.

Indian christians, hindus, sikhs, jains all have similar social culture. Muslims have their own wierd social culture which cannot be penetrated by anyone. Though there are quite a few educated ones among them as well, but even they dont allow non-muslims to date or marry their children.
