Hindus, Shikhs and Punjabs? Do they worship different deities?

Hindu and Sikh are different religions in India. Sikhism is about 800 years old, and arose in the middle ground between Islam and Hindu nations (and their religion reflects parts of both). Hinduism is much, much older.
Sikhism is generally monothesitic, and Hinduism is generally polythestic.
Punjab is a geographical region of India and Pakistan, which is predominately Sikh. So often, in America, the Sikhs you meet are from the Indian state of Punjab.

Punjab is a place.
Many Sikhs live in Punjab. Sikhism is a religion which has some similarities with Hinduism and some with Islam.

They all do, and they are all false.
For example, I have two gold fish.
When I feed them , the first one will start eating five or six pellets - and the other fish did not know the food was up there.
The first fish passes by the other fish five or six times - and still the other fish keep looking for food in the lower parts of the tank.
The first fish did not know how to tell the second fish.
If fish cannot talk to each other, what idiots state for sure that animals and pets can do good deeds.

Sikhs are the ones who wear the turbans, some of them are real tall.

Hindus have names like 'Lenny'. Sikhs have names like 'Carl'.
