the first one was quote from your TV program,neither I commented and or add anything.it is upto an individual what he want to conclude
and I decline your allegation of guilty of intellectual deprivation.
I appreciate your eternal faith....and please don't project your superiority by criticizing other religions....like no indisputable proof as to the authenticity of the beliefs.
there are two aspects of life sciences......rational and irrational
rational aspect falls into the category of PHYSICAL SCIENCE or physics
and irrational aspects come under metaphysics
and Hinduism (i will not say ONLY) explain clearly both aspects....and connects the dots.
It is the oldest of all living religions
Hinduism cannot be described as an organized religion. It is not founded by any individual. Hinduism is God centred..the ALMIGHTY.
I don't want to start and preach like anything on this forum..this exp*****ion was necessary....but if anybody have any doubts on our convictions...i can clarify that.....
how individual's unquestionable beliefs and quest for eternal truth (regardless of any religion) paves the way of life towards ALMIGHTY can be
understood in this story............
The great novelist Leo Tolstoy wrote a delightful story, The Three Hermits. His friend Nicholas Roerich has summarized the tale, as follows:
“On an island there lived three(3) old hermits. They were so simple that the only prayer they used was: ‘We are three; you are Three—have mercy on us!’ Great miracles were manifested during this naive prayer.
“The local bishop came to hear about the three hermits and their inadmissible prayer, and decided to visit them in order to teach them. He arrived on the island, told the hermits that their prayer was undignified, and taught them many of the customary prayers. The bishop then left on a boat. He saw, following the ship, a radiant light. As it approached, he discerned the three hermits, who were holding hands and running upon the water waves in an effort to overtake the vessel.
“‘We have forgotten the prayers you taught us,’ they cried as they reached the bishop, ‘and have hastened to ask you to repeat them.’ The awed bishop shook his head.
“‘Dear ones,’ he(bishop) replied humbly, ‘continue to live with your old prayer!’”
Story of those three hermits is a fiction and can not be equated with real Massangers of Allah, hermit story is a fictional and the story of All Prophets is real, this reminds me about your claims of enlightening me about Hindu Religion and the prophet it has, my question was and still is that since u claim to be very well versed in Hinduism, I therefore ask u to enlighten me, but you so callously changed the subject and started a fictional story of hermits.
Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, a writer who was Atheist and was widely read by those with the same mindset and beliefs, which are not appropriate for Islam. Islam does not condone Secularism as it is Anti Religion and condones freedom of speech which is used by unmannered/uncivilized people to insult other Religions under the guise of Freedom of speech. it is down right criminal to incite feelings of others by acts of disrespect to their faiths and their beliefs. I can see why you mentioned him as he was read and respected by Mahatma ****hi.
Talking about Mahatma ****hi I would like you to read the following. And be enlightened.

True Muslims have not and will not do such disrespectful acts, there are some who are misguided and are acting to please enemies of Islam by killing innocents, I have explained in the previous post as to what is Allah's depiction of those who do this sort of stuff and are therefore in the category about which Allah has told us in no uncertain terms.
I will correct you here about preaching and your deductions about it, it is not preaching per say, it is healthy exchange of ideas and let the better idea be the norm and be the one to be followed by the people with clear minds and vibrant conscious.
Little you know about hermits as those are known to be loners who live life away from reality of this World, read on about a Muslim saint who confronted hermits, it might enlighten you.

How do come to the conclusion that I am portraying superiority of Islam, by saying this you have infect showed your inner feelings about Islam, I was merely stating the facts as narrated by the greats of Islam. If you get the feelings of Islam being superior than so be it, but I was merely stating the facts.
Again you stated science as having two aspects Rational and Irrational, these two aspects are clearly written in Islam as being the traits of Humans but spirituality takes the precedence on both of those and is therefore preferred by those who are spiritually bankrupt.
There are no dots to be connected in spirituality, Those who use these terms are not in tune with their own conviction, they look for escape and concoct such things as Secularism, but if u look closely, deep down they believe in their Religion, but have Questions and are not willing to ask those Question, so they concocted this so called secularism and keep promoting their other belief of the Religion they are born with, Yourself if asked about India will tell us that it is a secular Country, but keep promoting Hinduism as its Religion. Let me enlighten you here, A secular country officially should not have any Religion.
Islam is very clear about God, about his Massangers and about human and the acts and deeds they do, which are clearly noted by Allah's orders and on the day of Judgment all humans regardless of their beliefs will be judged on their deeds that they take with them for their eternal resting place such as Heaven or Hell.
so choice is your's, Dude.
