2.Draupadi had affair with Karna.
3.Shiva chopped one head of Brahma
4.Shiva used to take ladies avatar for fun.
5.Ayyappa is the son of shiva & Vishnu.
6.Hanuman got married to crocodile.
7.Shiva failure to recognise his son ganapathy.
In reality following hinduism is like worshipping everything. Creator and his creations.
If you go for study, you will come to know that its an imaginary story not real like cartoons.

In Sri Lanka there is no evidence of Rama. Its only available in Nagpur.

@ Senior Vishwa Hindu Parishad Leader... who are you to protect others? You Cannot protect Yourself unless Allah wills... You are the black sheep of Hindu Dharma Coz your thoughts itself indicates that you are an atheist. You don't belong to any religion,
I wonder who will protect you fromAllah if you did not repent and accept Muhammad (peace be upon him) as your prophet
A 'Jain' asking 'Muslims' to convert to 'Hinduism'. Excellent example for communal harmony in feku (i dont mind if you read 'e' as 'a') age.
when Mr Jain converted to Hinduism ? just ignore his lose talk
To know how God created all that exists....
The Non Muslims should read THE QURAN... U will come to understand who is following what.. (U can try thequranproject online)
And to follow Prophets of God ... It needs God's blessing...
Some hate mongers are missing and they even cannot identify whats good and whats bad to the society.
To honest people on EARTH... Just ask once \oh the one who put Soul in me ... GUIDE me...\"
U will surely SEE the real colors of LIFE of who is with whom, if your INTENTION is right... TRY IT.."
Prophet Adam (peace be upon him). Was the first human being came to the earth. So by all means all are in this world should be Muslims. So now if all Hindus revert to Islam we will give you security to eat beef.

This Bullshit has nothing to do... Spreading venom in the society.. and useless govt continuing their silence towards these Sangah Parivaar, Why the Govt can't ban the anti social elements..
