I think he was referring to people such as Raj. I know many Hindi; I find them, as a whole, quite peaceful, and very pleasant to get along with. In fact, I almost have developed a reverse prejudice: If I meet a Hindu in a work or classroom situation, and I have to pick teams knowing very little about the people who I am picking, I think I might naturally tend to lean to a Hindy to work with. I expect they'll be hard-working, team-oriented, intelligent, positive, and friendly. (Naturally, a positive prejudice is wrong, just as a negative one is, but it is helpful to acknowledge that one exists, and that I am capable of developing one.) But there have been a few attacks on this thread that lead me to see where that the commment about there being a Hindufascist mob on this site comes from, even if it is a bit overblown.

Hindus (different from hindi which is a language in india) are not fascists and will have no problem worshipping anywhere including in churches. But the so called missionaries are not guilt less either. first of all they break indian laws by targetting the poor and the needy for conversion by offering them monetary benefits. somehow jesus for a rupee is hardly my version of christianity.

India is a remarkably tolerant society. Why else would they have a sikh and a muslim as the head of their country.
But if our missionaries go and start attacking hinduism it wont go down well even with pacifist people. Imagine a hindu monk preaching in interior mississippi and mocking christianity as devil worship.

There have been well documented incidents of christians massacring hindus in india!! (i think these are along areas bordering china. not sure) Many areas in india that have a christian majority prohibit hindus from worshipping. Try that in a slammie country and the christians will be massacred down to the last child.

And finally about the poster. This guy sports a portugese flag and is a regular hindu baiter on this forum. According to him - a law graduate like himself cant get a job and this must be solely the fault of corporate india dominated by the hindus. Replace hindus with jews and you are staring at nazi germany talk.
