Bobbysmith: /* Controversies? */

{{Wikiproject Religion}}
== Middlegray's edits ==
I removed Middlegray's edit with the edit comment, "''Thanks for the source. That allowed me to determine that the source, and therefore the para., was scurrilous misinformation, so I've removed it.''"

Middlegray reinstated his edit, with the edit comment, "''Dear Philip J. Rayment, I am from India, I am Hindu and you are niether, so your judgment of authenticity of my sources is as good as my judgement about KKK''".

True, I'm not from India, and I'm not Hindu, but I am from Australia and I am a Christian, so that makes me competent to judge what that anti-Christian Hindu site was saying, particularly when it said, "The terrorists [Christians] receive military aid from extremist Christian groups in Australia and New Zealand". This is either utter nonsense, or at best an extremely atypical situation.

Karajou reverted the reinstatement. Nevertheless, the reinstatement did provide a different source, and the second part of the edit at least is supported there, so I am reinstating that bit.

== Contradiction ==

Would just like to note that it is said in this article that Hinduism in not a polytheistic religion. But if you click on the "polytheism" link, it says otherwise.

== Controversies? ==

Why would the Hinduism page be the only page of a major religion to receive a controversies section despite the fact almost every religious institution in history has had many controversies? Also the two examples included the caste system which was not originally part of hinduism but was actually a way for the indo-european invaders to obtain control over the indigenous population, and sati which is not a traditional hindu belief. This is only a question as to why the other religion based pages don't have these sections.

:If you have information that should be added to this and other articles, then add it. Making substantive contributions is more helpful than complaining on the talk page. Excessive talk is disfavored here. [[User:DanielPulido|DanielPulido]] 03:05, 17 July 2010 (EDT)

I am sorry If you feel I am just complaining that is not the case i am just concerned that an article that is quite small must receive a controversies section while much larger articles (i.e. Christianity, Judaism) don't receive such sections. I personally feel that there should not be a controversies section because it is about the religion itself not an institution or the people who practice it.
