Just to add to Shiv here - saying "Hindu dominated" is not necessarily the same as saying "India is a Hindu country". I think, as a factual matter, that India is indeed Hindu dominated. I do NOT think India is a "Hindu country", because that implies there is some kind of state preference for Hinduism, and other religions are (in some way) second class. Badri
