There are thugs who hide behind religion to partake in their thuggery in every religion. My problem with Islam is that their 'holy' book tells them to commit this murder and mayhem (if they cannot force a conversion). I don't believe the Hindu's 'writings' (whatever they are) do the same.
So I take this as free-lance thuggery - not having anything to do with Hinduism, but with Christ haters.
Great point. Worthy of further research on my part. TY
