    So Hindu believe that the alien worshipping death cult that thinks all Hindu should die is as true as their own religion? That doesn’t seem right.

      You are correct!

      That is to say, you are right about being not right.

      At the core, Hindus and Christians basically share the same philosophy on God.

      In Christianity, God has three aspects. Jesus, The Holy Ghost and God. In Christianity, this is known as “The Trinity”. If you pray to Jesus, you are also praying to God and the Holy Spirit.

      Similarly, ancient Hindus asserted that the essence of the deities was unitary, and the deities were nothing but pluralistic manifestations of the same concept of the divine god.

      So, if a Hindi met a member of a death cult, they might think “This person is missing out SO much good stuff!” But not really - they’d probably think that Mr. Death Cult Person was a weirdo and missing the point of religion entirely.

      You have to ask some Hindu about it. Maybe if you’re less argumentative and more eager to learn they’ll tell.

      By the way, I actually put in some effort in that comment to you which you downvoted. To me that felt a bit disrespectful of you.
