When religion demands Goodness and scorns human failings, then religion becomes a cult. Humans have weaknesses and some people may have "unacceptable behaviour". Religions should treat them with empathy rather than with disdain. This is not possible in organized religions which demand adherence to their tenets.
Unorganized religions, like_Hinduism, have the innate quality of accepting people for what they are. They don't demand goodness from it's followers. They just show the path.
Hinduism is a philosophy of life. An atheist can also be a_Hindu. There is less chance of a Hindu hating someone else for his beliefs than it is in organized religions.

As a corollary to the above, RSS is trying to destroy_Hinduism by making it uniform and organized. Not eating beef is symptomatic of that.

Do you know what RSS workers are doing in Chennai? or wherever there was a disaster. Just because they do it silently, does not mean that you can go on writing you nonsense about them all the time. Just go deeper with open mind and see.

Obviously you are behind a dubious name because this article is unrelated to your musings above. The hatred is visible and you are no different.
It appears that religion is occupying first place in human mind and religious supremacy appears to be the goal. All the religions teach companion ship with fellow human beings and violence is never a part of any religion. The violence is aimed at proving supremacy over fellow human beings. Due to this duty towards our fellow being is forgotten.
