I don't know how many of us want to become Indian, but I've looked into Hinduism and find it intriguing. It's very different from how I was raised, and I didn't pursue it in depth, partially because there are sooo many texts to read, and then I heard you have to be born Hindu to be Hindu and they don't take converts. As far as Indian society, I have a problem with some of the things I've heard about the caste system and of course I've heard some things in the media that turned me off. Suffice to say, I respect Indian culture just as I respect any other; I have no particular love or hatred either way.

Mmm... Tandorie Chicken...
I have a couple of Indian friends. I am not interested in becoming Indian, but there are certain aspects of Indian culture that I find interesting. The cuisine of course is wonderful, plus I think Yoga and Ayurveda have a lot of merit.

I respect Indian and every other culture but I sure would not want to become one.

This is ridiculous. It is very rare for anyone for any non-indian to be attracted by Indian culture and religion. To answer your question on how many would want to be become indian, I'd say 1 in a million.

I respect it, but don't believe in their customs. You can't become Indian, you have to be born in India. As far as their culture goes, do you refer to Arabs, because many Indians are Buddhists, Arabs follow Muslim, generally, the ones I know

I don't think in any way i would like to be an Indian though i respect it's culture. Indians are difficult to live with and i don't admire them at all.

In "American culture" ? about as much chance as you have of becoming a Drag Racer. They probably could not handle the "OVER NIGHT" shift at 7-11

Okay, are you talking someone from India, or "native"American? I have no desire to be, or be like either. However, I do think "native" American's are cool. I have several dream catchers around my room.They also knew a lot of things about healing herbs and things.
