Should Christians and Jews be laughed at for worshiping cartoon figures like flying angels? After all, if they're spirits they don't need wings.
Assuming that you meant "Hindus" (not "Hidus") perhaps you should learn something about the religion instead of laughing at it. Ignorance is curable by attaining knowledge, and it takes an ignorant person to laugh at what he/she does not understand. Stupidity is willfully remaining ignorant.

mean no disrespect but do u mean Jumbo the flying elephant,.his just a cartoon character for small children to enjoy watching on television what does jumbo gotta do with hindus be laughed at..
But if u mean other cartoon figures of flying elephants,its quite odd though ,although it falls in the character of idol worship.

First of all learn to spell.The right word is Hindu.Secondly who are you to question someoneelses' belief system?I am not Hindu but was born amongst them in India.As long as their beliefs dont harm anyone, that is most important.To the Hindus almost everything in this universe is sacred, I think it is a great way to live with reverance and spirituality.You need to get rid of your ignorance or you may end up being laughed at.

I don't know any "Hidus" but I do know a few Hindus. I don't laugh at their beliefs and they don't laugh at mine. I have a statue of Ganesha on my altar.

Not anymore than Christians should be laughed at for believing that an old guy built a ginormous boat to house 2 or each animal. Puhleez.

I am a pretty conventional Christian, and I have always regarded Hinduism with respect. Whatever Hindu "belief" you are making fun of, you are reducing it to a caricature.

Who is Hidus? Is this some one famous? What movies he has been in?
