all it means to me is that they dont understand what Jesus said " narrow is the way to eternal life but broad is the way to destruction"

America!! we had better pray to God for guidance on the future choices we make we are going down the broad path to destruction.

The Hindu religion, with their constantly growing pantheon, never made sense to me.  They believe that cattle are sacred, they don't get along with Muslims (who does?) and they believe that they must go through mortality time and again before they get it right.

There is nothing that scares Indians more than cobras, so who is their biggest god?  Shiva!  They delight in life, so who else do they worship?  Kali!  So it goes.

It is an old arcane tradition, but I can't see how it got started. 

Have you checked your medical benefits since Obamacare?

Nothing... for in Hinduism as many human beings... as many different paths to God Almighty can there be! In Hinduism... every single human being is free to worship God as per ones choice. There was never a binding of any kind for worshipping God. Truly the invincible god can be worshipped in any form as per Hinduism.

Those poor... worshipped God in image of tree... or even a stone! Those who had means to go to a Temple... worshipped God in image of statues kept in temple! People in India worshipped rivers and mountains as goddesses and gods. As the means available... accordingly the manifestation of worship! One was always free to worship God as one wished!

However as detailed in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism, God Almighty was one and only one termed Brahman in Hinduism! Even though as per Hinduism mythology there exist a total of 330 million gods but for those wanting to reach God in present life... God Almighty was one and only one! This was confirmed by Advaita Vedanta theory of Hinduism!
