These high-souled, erudite individuals all left their mark on Hinduism with their learned commentaries and other writings, and they deserve your respect even if you are going to disagree with them. And if you are going to disagree with them, let me suggest that you do so politely. No matter how much we read, we are certainly not on the level of any of these great scholars in terms of their dedication or erudition.
pranams,
And towering above all these, great, mostly Vaishnava personalities( no surprise there), is our great Krishna Dvaipayana Veda Vyasa, who deserve our utmost respect, so i ask again the original purpose of this thread, does he teach some non sense in smriti text?
Did Vyasdev not know sruti? To think he could write non sense, is an insult of a monumental proportion don't you think?
How would majority of Hindus who had no access to Sruti, reconcile them? Mind boggles.
Jai Shree Krishna

Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
