WHY HINDUISM CANNOT BE FUNDAMENTALIST/COMMUNALIST LIKE
ISLAM/CHRISTIANITY

1. The reason why Hinduism can never be fundamentalist like
Christianity (or Islam) is because of the vast dis-similarity that
Hinduism has from Christianity (and Islam). To perceive this dis-similarity,
it is instructiveto gaze at the modus operanda of both Hinduism
and Christianity (and Islam) and then relate them to the
consequences that follow in the aftermath.
2. When we try to compare the religions of the world, we find that
there are two primary types of religions in the world: Religions
of Exclusivity and Religions Of Non-Exclsusivity (or Religions of
Inclusivity). The practitioners of the Religions Of Exclusivity
believe with an intense determination that their religion is
exclusively and electively the only true religion in the world and
that all other religions in the world are preposterously false,
they are doing nothing but evil in the world, therefore, it is the
duty (sacred duty) of their faithfulls to move the miscreant
rascals away from the path of perfidious falsehood and towards the
only true path of religion, theirs. The teachings of these
Exclusivity Religions always involve an Exclusive God (and no
other God but theirs) which is available only through their
religion and only through their favored intermediary.
Because their belief in their alleged "Exclusive Truth"
is unbounded and is without any reservation or hesitation
whatsoever, their modus operanda is UNIPLEX i.e. there is only one
true path to God...theirs. All other paths are worthless rubbish.
3. Religions of Non-Exlusivity, on the other hand, uphold that
their religion is "not the only true religion in the
world" because there are many, many other paths steering
towards and leading to God and that religious methods, mores, and
experiences are extra-ordinarily varied and myriad in number.
Because they believe in the Plurality Of Paths, the modus operanda
of the religions of Non-Exclusivity is MULTI-PLEX i.e. there are
many many pathways to God. Consequently, they neither claim
nor profess any monopoly on truth. They do not label or tag paths,
other than their own path, as worthless rubbish nor do they ever
try to bend or twist other people in the world to get them to
accept their form of religion. The phenominal tolerance and
hospitality of religions of Non-Exclusivity resulting from their
Multiplex Approach, is beyond question, and well-known.
Amongst the religions of the world, Islam and Christianity are the
biggest examples of the Religions Of Exclusivity and Hinduism is
the biggest example of a Religion Of Non-Exclusivity.
A religion like Islam/Christianity which demonises
Non-Moslems/Non-Christians, which preaches and teaches that all
religions other than itself, are inferior, and destined only to
end up in the torrid fires of Hell, cannot be equated with a
religion like Hinduism which preaches that all are equal and can
attain salvation through whichever path they choose to follow.
Because of this essential characteristic of distinction, to
compare religions of exclusivity like Islam/Christianity with a
religion like Hinduism, is like comparing "Apples And
Oranges"and it tends to hide the heavy-duty havoc that Islam/Christiantiy
have wrought into the world in the course of centuries of their
barbarism. This is a stinging but a fully deserved attack on
Islam/Christianity and should at least shake up all civilized
people of the world, if not throw them into a panic.
4. Hinduism is not a totalitarian religion like Islam/Christianity
which controls and regiments the totality of a follower's life and
enforces it with passion. Hinduism neither requires nor practises
a system of government by Hindu Priests who claim a divine
commandment to control or govern people.These thoroughly
theocratic and totalitarian practices were used only by
Christianity in Europe during the Middle Ages and by Islam for
several centuries, they are still being used at this time in
Islamic countries. Again, these thoroughly theocratic and
totalitarian practices are the specialties only of
Islam/Christianity, the two barbaric creeds of mankind, each of
whom has murdered hundreds of millions of their innocent fellow
human beings, who did them no harm, and each of these barbarian
creeds has decimated dozens of ancient civilizations from the face
of this earth.
Hinduism is a totally contrasting religion; it is a RELIGION OF
THE FREE MAN. Holy Men of Hinduism have never run the affairs of
the government in the entire history of Hinduism and Holy Men of
Hinduism are not running the affairs of the government at this
time. This type of theocratic activity is Totally Un-Hindu,
Totally Irrelevent, and Totally Irreverent to the Hindu Dharma/Sanatan
Dharma. Affixing the thoroughly theocratic and totalitarian
apparatus of the "Exclusivity Religions" of Islam &
Christianity on to Hinduism, by heaping labels of
"Fundamentalism," "Communalism" etc on it, is
maliciously mischevious, it is a sad and sickening attempt on the
part of Islam/Christianity to disparage Hinduism. The simple truth
is that "Fundamentalism" and "Hinduism" are
Oxymorons. "Communalism" and "Hinduism" are
also Oxymorons and for exact same reasons.
5. Islam/Christianity are barbaric ideologies, masquerading as
religions, both Islam/Christianity came into this world to destroy
all religions other than their own and they will not depart or
desist from their demolishing/decimating activity. Hinduism has no
aim, ambition, or objective of destroying any body's religion or
culture. Hinduism principle is LIVE AND LET LIVE.
Because Hinduism is so vastly different from Islam/Christianity,
shouting slogans of Fundamentalism and Communalism at it (i.e. at
Hinduism ) is "Barking At The Wrong Tree." These slogans
don't fit Hinduism at all and belong elsewhere, they fit best on
Islam and Christianity, both of whom have transformed peace-loving
Arabs into raving maniacs and have made them the despicable
scourge of more than half the world. Both Islam/Christianity have
each decimated dozens of ancient civilizations, have destroyed
their knowledge base, temples, and other examplars, leaving not a
smidgeon of those ancient civilizations.
Because of the totalitarian control that Islam/Christianity
exercises on its members, no Moslem is tolerant nor can be and no
Christian is tolerant nor can be. Their religion has placed them
in charge of a civilising barbaric mission, after sedulously
training them for it, which they are told is leading them towards
an inevitable triumph. The negative and brutal consequences of
this barbaric mission are clearly visible. Both Islam &
Christianity have on their hands the blood of hundreds of millions
of fellow human being which they mercilessly murdered and have on
their conscience the decimation and destruction of dozens of the
world's most ancient and great civilizations of the world. Yet
these hypocrate Moslem/Christian followers of Barbaric
Islam/Christianity, call themselves "Peace-Loving" and
"Secular" and in expression of blatant falsehood, even
label the passive Hindus as "Fundamentalists,"
"Communalists." and "Fascists," What travesty
of terminology, what mockery of truth, and what Falsehood?
6. According to the method and mandate of Islamic/Christian
belief, the source of all authority and sovereignty lies in their
God, who tells them that those who do not subscribe to their
belief system are the worst of beasts, it follows logically and
compellingly that those who belong to their religion are part of
the God's Army and others who do not, are part of the Devil's
Detachment. The latter are the Infidels/Pagans/Heathens and
because they are destined to end up invariably/inevitably in Hell,
they deserve nothing better than disgrace, degradation, death and
destruction on this earth. This division into two opposite groups,
that Islam/Christianity has worked out for itself, makes the
Moslems and the Christians appointment themselves as God's Police
Force On Earth, and they consider it their Divine Duty to enforce
the laws and rights of their God, without showing any mercy or
mellowness towards the Satan's Party.
Both Islam & Christianity, diligently abhor idolators and
their Aryan gods/goddess, they are ever busy destroying and
demolishing the idols and temples of Infidels/Pagans/Heathens, and
are building mosques and churches on top of the demolished
temples. The lands and other properties attached to the temples
are immediately transfered to the mosques or to the churches. The
repair and rebuilding of fresh idols and temples is made a
specific crime that is punishable with fine, imprisonment,
death, and other dreadful punishments. The Non-Moslem and
Non-Christian populations are herculeanly humiliated. .
7. Hinduism is a religion of Non-Exclusivity (or Inclusivity) and
because of this Inclusivity, centuries ago Hinduism welcomed into
India the Zorastrians and the Jews, who were driven out of their
homes in Iran and the Middle East, by the invading Moslem Hordes
This clearly establishes that Hinduism is neither like Islam nor
like Christianity. And Islam and Christianity are not like
Hinduism nor can they ever be. What is the conclusion from all
these facts of explanation? It is simply this that:
a. ISLAM AND CHRISTIANITY ARE GOSPELS OF HATE.
b. ISLAM AND CHRISTIANITY ARE INSTRUMENTS OF DEMONISATION OF THE
NON-MOSLEMS/NON-CHRISTIANS.
c. HINDUISM IS A GOSPEL OF TOLERANCE AND HOSPITALITY.
Arise Hindus!
