yeah right!! if you go around abusing hindus and their gods, calling them satanic and indulge in hindu bashing in the name of caste, idol worship dont expect them to love you. i have seen disgusting behavior by some so called christian groups out there. i was in an airport in southern india and met a western couple who shared their "views on hinduism" with a fellow western christian. i was disgusted. these arent christians but jihadis wrapped in a cloak of christ.

stop your hatred of pacifist religions like hinduism, buddhism etc. if you keep pushing these people they will retaliate. we all known there are trouble makers that want to start a mini war against hindus.

mainstream conservatives have no issue with hinduism. go and worship in peace and be great americans (and indians).

I must agree with that -- while I don't believe in any Hindu gods, goddesses or beliefs, I can respect the RIGHTS of the persons who are following it to their belief system.

I can TELL them about my beliefs (btw I'm Roman Catholic) and explain WHY I believe what I believe in -- they're free to ignore me (so I am opposed to a ban on outdoor preaching).

If they want to explain to me their belief system, well and good, but when we both make that choice, we must both be open to criticism by the other -- but criticism does not include insults. If the Christian missionary tells the Hindu that he worships demons, that Hindu will first refuse to hear any more and that missionary will have a. not succeeded in the main point: spreading the message of God and b. displayed a most uncouth behavior.

I've found many Hindus as open and receptive if one respects their beliefs, traditions and intelligence. All a Christian can do is give someone their understanding of what Christianity is and direct the way. Beyond that, it's a process of discovery for the other.

However, if, by insulting, one stops the other from even BEGINNING on their journey, one is doing a horrendous disfavor to the Church.
