Interesting and insightful article. I particularly liked: "The most striking feature of the Vedas is that the Vedas are not the word of god; the Vedas mostly consist of hymns addressed to the gods. This might seem like a mere literary detail, but it is refreshing to read a religious book where, for a change, mankind is the author and not the target audience."
