[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're upset that Hindus don't know that Jesus was also a historical figure? How much do you know about the historical development of Hinduism?

Most people don't know much about the historical development of their own religion, much less the history of other religions that they do not personally follow. [/quote]

Except they follow a Gregorian Calendar, celebrate Aspects of Halloween, Valentines Day, Easter, Christmas etc. live in America and have tons of Judo/Christian co-workers. So they do a lot of aspects already.

I would not expect Hindus who live in India or newly immigrated folks to know. I am taking two staff born in New Jersey.

My one staff who is 43 went to first Wake a few weeks ago. I found that unusual. When someone dies no matter religion or not I go. She like it as it was a quick in and out goodbye with no religious overtones. She did not go funeral part. I asked if she ever sat Shiver or any other religion she said no.

You sound ignorant. [/quote]

Yep. OP sounds like they're making a case for Hindus not being real Americans because they are not assimilated enough.

As another PP said, it's absurd to expect Hindus to know more about the historical development of Christianity than most Christians do.  If you're talking about theology (the fact that Christians believe that Jesus was a man and a god) then it's also absurd to expect people of another religion to know your religion.

The wake thing just seems like you're trying to make your case even harder.  I am 43 and have been to a grand total of 1 wake and 1 shiva in my life.  My guess is that she has participated in funerals of her close families and friends.  [/quote]
