    Why Sikh and Jain other???

    Use of term 'Other' is very bad and extremely bad in a Hindu forum. Why 'other'? Can't we still aren't able to get the difference between 'we' and 'they'(or 'other').

    In my organisation(http://vedgov.in) there are Jains and a Sikh. Are these guys fools? I have never meet a Sikh(lives in Rajasthan) who don't worship on of Hindu god. They are hindus.... In Sikh Kingdom, beef was strictly banned...

    So why they are said 'other' Dharma???

    It's a forum policy more than an ideological.
    There's no purpose creating a subforum for the 1 maybe 2 Sikh posters and the 0 Jain posters because we would just have empty subforums.

    It's a bandwidth and organization issue. Not an ideological.

    I think they must be put in 'God in Hindu Dharma' instead of 'Other Dharma tradition'.

    And it is not necessarily that only Sikhs and Jains post there. Eg.- I posts at Islam subforum and many other hindus here, but they aren't muslims... In same way people can post at Jain and Sikh sub-forum.

    Actually it really looks bad when we see word 'other'.

    Then that makes it a Hindu forum, which makes it even worse in your view. I think there is already a Hindu Dharma forum here.

    What I meant is that you seem to be asking for a Hindu Dharma forum, which this site already is. The forum you're questioning isn't a snub at anyone. It's just a place for discussion of faiths that grew out of Hinduism. There are, after all, some differences. They are just sub-forums. I doubt they were intended to offend anyone. If someone wants to be offended, they will be offended; if they want to see evil, they will see evil; if they want to see good, they will see good. We see what we want to see.
