Some of these (not all) who cast themselves as Hindus, are the height
of hypocrisy. Having made their career in a "Christian" country, and
probably even having taken the citizenship of that country, they are
now trying to save their religion.
Wish they had some simple basic integrity. Couching one's language in
sophisticated terms is no substitute for basic honesty!
