Re: More Needs to be done
by The Leader on Nov 21, 2008 01:46 PM

A great religion does not need state to support it. It is a shallow religion whihc needs orhtodoxy, state support, and fanaticsm. We should be proud of the freedom allowed in Hinduism. Hinduism allows the worship of any Gods, and says that ll paths lead to the same god. Hence, in a braod sense, Hinduism accepts Islam, christianity, etc as different ways accepted and allowed by it. Boraly speaking, all religions are part of Hinduism. Unlike this, Bible and Quran have instances where Jehovah, and Allah instruct the followers to worship pnly him, and no other GOD. Hence, I say, we do not need any government to support Hinduism. It has survived and will survive the test of time. Let us be secular in our outlook and not take the mantle of fanaticsm from Islam and Christianity on to our shoulders.
