OP - That does not effect myself personally. The one Hindu in particular was born and raised in NJ and his parents came here in their 20s. His wife was born and raised in Long Island, her parents also moved here in their 20s. He actually has children and have Hindu first names and are learning Hindi and only eat Indian food every day. Fine that is their culture.
But absolutely astounded when they thought Jesus was some mythical God like Zeus or Thor and did not know Jesus was in human form when on Earth. Not asking them to believe it, but did you not turn on a TV in December in your entire life, did you not even every talk to a non-Hindu.
I dont care anymore but it is amazing, Jews, Muslims, Pagans, Tribe Members and folks in Communist Countries with no religion know the story. Dont mean they believe any of it. But come on now. I dont care about their beliefs but dont say stupid things. Like the time we went to a steakhouse with our Catholic Boss during a Friday in Lent and the Hindu says I got Vegetarian but you should eat the steak. Then Boss says he cant eat Meat it is a Friday and says he may get Fish. Then the guy pushes it one more and said if you are not eating red meat the Chicken is good. Finally he says I am ok I am getting Fish.
OMG- next day I had to tell him about Lent and Fish is not Meat .
