How do they respond to the "No one can come throguh the Father except through me"?

For hindus the "me" is really "me". Hinduism believes that there are separate ways to reach the supreme being. In other words - spirituality or worship of an idol or a tree or christ is really a worship of the supreme being. Hence your mode of worship doesnt matter since you are really worshipping the infinite force - the parmatma - or the supreme being.

Within Hinduism you can even worship yourself. Since hinduism believes that a part of the supreme being - the atma - resides in every thing living. The whole idea of karma is to grow this atma till it becomes infinite and hence one with the parmatma.
