u people r bashing hinduism so much. but do remember that it is the freedom of expression within hinduism that is allowing you to do so. can u do the same in a muslim country? or for that matter, try speaking that in front of an imam, or a muslim in nepalgunj, or followers of your pope. hinduism is pluralistic and democratic in the true sense, u can worship any deity, u may not go to temple, u may not worship, still u remain a hindu. u can follow the Charvak Darshan, which says "there is no god, no swarga, or no naraka, so just eat, drink n be merry" n u can still remain a hindu. can you give any evidence of such varied philosophies within the rubric of the same religion? u can say anything about shiva/ vishnu etc, try doing that about mohammad n see what happens. there r practices which r definitely not good in current day hinduism like the caste system, but are there no nuances at all in other religions? r they 100% good? we should try to leave the bad aspects in our religion and follow the good aspects. we should try to look at the better aspects in hinduism as well rather than constantly bashing it.
