Not all Hindus believe in all of the so-called "Hindu gods". Some of them are quite monotheistic. In other cases what is meant as God simply has many names. In others the big difference between what they view as the God-head and our (Christian) own is that they add a female component to the picture.

Hinduism must be thought of more as a combination of free form do it yourself religiosity combined with an agreement to try to stay out of the other guy's theology ~ that way they can put up their family chapels in the same building where they can be safe from friend and foe.

It has been said that the number of religions in India is equal to the number of people.

Our God has many names but He is the same God, never changing. "You shall have no other gods before me". This statement by our God clearly implies one can have other gods but they are not the same God Christians worship. There is NO "what is meant as God" being lumped into an all inclusive god. Hindus, Muzzies, Budists, and on and on and on do NOT worship a living God. Our living God. All of their god's are dead or inanimate objects. It is blaspheme to use His name in conjunction with any little "g" god. When this nation finally falls completely apart, and that is where it is headed very quickly, we'll have your mind set that it doesn't matter which god/God one prays to - they are all one in the same. This is a lie of Satan and we'll pay the highest price for it.

It has nothing to do with what you or I say. It's what God says and you better be listening to the One True God. All others get you a hearing in hell.
