I taught yoga for 25 years and had to learn all about Hinduism. It is, basically, insane. There are some 330 millions "gods" or faces of God: people, animals, objects, you name it. Of course, Hinduism is VERY old and that is why it is so wacky. No rules that are even REMOTELY connected to these past milenia.
My husband was ABSOLUTELY sure that, in India, somewhere, someone was worshiping a '56 Chevy. He was probably correct.

While we were overseas I worked with a couple of Indians who were Catholic and we visited India for three weeks or so, just because we KNEW we would never, ever, ever visit there when we returned home.

India is a ZOO. Am I ever glad the good Lord let me be born HERE and not THERE.

Persecution is a real thing, but the “threat” of persecution is tenuous.

Though undoubtedly there are other examples, the most prominent time that Hindu extremists oppress Christians seems to be when there are accusations of proselytization.

While this is still intolerable, it is a far cry from the innumerable rationalizations that Muslims use to persecute others.

In any event, there is the optimism of the wait and see attitude.
