Sali creates 'firestorm' defending Christian prayer
WorldNetDaily, OR - 9 hours ago
India, the prime example of a society shaped by Hinduism, is a land of wrenching poverty and mind-numbing filth and disease, which is why Mother Theresa, ...

Ahh... the World NUT Daily ... one of the online bastions of NeoCon Fundie hatefulness ... this is certainly a case where one must consider the source (which, thankfully is still representive of the fringe rather than the majority)!
Despite the Christophobic firestorm directed at Rep. Sali, he is exactly right with regard to both of his concerns.
Hindus believe in a virtually infinite number of gods and worship cows, monkeys and snakes. Our Founding Fathers, on the other hand, believed in one God: The Creator God revealed in the Old and New Testaments, the God who is the source of our inalienable civil rights and liberties. As a people, we pledge allegiance to "one nation under God," not "one nation under gods." Hindus are certainly free in America to worship as many gods and animals as they want to, but we must not be deluded into thinking that they pray to or worship the same God who is enshrined in our Declaration of Independence.
Yeah, play that persecution song again, Sam.

It is revealed in the sacred doctrine of Kula and by the great Bhairava, that the perfection is achieved by that very means by which fall occurs.
And we wonder why all the misconceptions about Hinduism still abound. Would it be worth writing a response to that article and sending it in?

The WND is an entirely biased publication, IMO. These are the sort of folks who think that "church planting" in India is for your own good. I wouldn't bother with them.Originally Posted by indianx

Namaste Indianx,
The article definitely is very biased and must be representing the mad-fringe. But the quote below from the same article seems so familiar. I have seen it earlier also. Just change the names and it becomes universal, can be used as an object similar as in OOPS(Objected Oriented Programing).
Certainly the role of religion in American history is worth dialogue and debate. But you'd never know it by listening to the screeching voices of secular fundamentalists, who, in their hatred for all things Christian, don't want to discuss but only to destroy anyone who would dare defend the historic role of Judeo-Christian values in America's public life.
Om
That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
