To my friend who talks abt conversion. Every religion preaches the same things about ethincs and moral values. religion is only a path we choose to follow to attain that wisdom. it really doesnt matter what religion you are. by conversion, does it mean that all hindus are currently suffering and down in the dumps and all islams (or say christians) are really really happy and no-one in that religion is suffering or unhappy at all? even muslims (or christians) are constantly praying and hoping for better times all the time.
then what is the big deal abt conversion other then getting the cheap thrill of successfully adding more members to your list?
Talking abt false and blind faith, even muslims cut goats every year as a religious belief on bakri Id. it was something which happened in the islamic mythologcial era long ago. but it is blind belief for muslims to still continue cutting thousands and thousands of poor goats every year just to remember and relive that story. or for strapping yourself during ramadan.
false worship is there in all religions.
Yes, hindu followers too have one main god in their heart. but there are several deities you can worship for different purposes in day to day life. it is practical. even chinese people have a similar worshipping pattern.
but the ultimate act of praying does not change in any religion. It wud be nice if u remove such thoughts that one religion is superior or ultimate to another. no religion is perfect, no religion is imperfect.

No. It will be great if all Hindus enter Islam. My grand grand fathers were Hindus but I really thank from core of my heart to those who brougththe light of Islam in them so I got free of wrhsipping statues, cows, and so many false gods. I worship One and Only God Who Created me and entire unvierse and to whom we shall all return. I realy thank God for giving us His most preciosu gift i.e Quran which is prtoected and prerserved letter by letter in its original language for last 1450 years and yet it is as fresh as on day 1.
