I am appalled with the western understanding of my religion. First of all, many christians think we are devil-worshipping polytheists. But we only have three main gods, Vishnu, Brahma, and Shiva. And besides, we believe that they are the same god in different forms. Sounds familiar? This same format is used in christianity in the triumverate. Also, people think that we all abide by the caste system and that it is so wrong blah blah blah. In our social studies book it says about two lines about the actual country and it spend 4 lines talking about the caste system. WTF??? In the west, just a half century ago, there was the same class system, the aristocrats/wealthy, the middle class workers, the poor, and slaves/wage slaves. The same is apparent in feudalism but we as hindus get all of the hate. Lastly, people come up to me and say oooo you worship cows. Hahahahaha!!!
Hindus dont worship cows/monkeys, we just believe that all animals have lives too. So Why do you hate us???
