Given that there are atheist, polytheist and monotheist Hindus, that's quote is from serious ignorance.Whose quotation is that? What's meant by "fall?"
Indeed the numbers of hindus converting to islam is huge as compared to conversions to hinduism.Whose quotation is that? What's meant by "fall?"
True there are many types of Hindus. But all are falling.Given that there are atheist, polytheist and monotheist Hindus, that's quote is from serious ignorance.
Provide a source for that claim.Indeed the numbers of hindus converting to islam is huge as compared to conversions to hinduism.
What do you mean by falling?True there are many types of Hindus. But all are falling.
Revelations from Moroni or a visitation from Lord Krishna, neither has good evidence for it being literal.Indeed the numbers of hindus converting to islam is huge as compared to conversions to hinduism.
Sounds like a common misconception about Brahman and Yahweh.“Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?
Different Total Fertility Rates (2.7 vs 2.4) and/or pizza consumption.“Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?
Sure. There are millions of opinions about life on this planet, in a vast array of topics. This is one opinion. That ought to help you understand, but I suspect it won't.“Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?
@Bharat JhunjhunwalaTrue there are many types of Hindus. But all are falling.
I'm confused about the relationship here.@Bharat Jhunjhunwala
Is "fall" also referring to the Indo-Pakistani conflict of 1947-1948?
When did India lose the territory that became Pakistan?
Did that also result in "fall" when Hindus converted to Islam?
I'm still trying to figure out what the OP meant by "fall."
If the quotation was from a soldier of the British Raj, battling Hindu forces, it probably means die. If it's from a theologin it's probably a doctrinal disagreement. If it's a political statement it probably refers to loss of sovereignty or some political defeat.
The term is impossibly ambiguous. Unless it's clarified intelligent discussion of it is impossible.
I was responding to @Valjean and wasn't done writing the postI'm confused about the relationship here.
Is @Bharat Jhunjhunwala your guru?
It seems to me you've gleaned over every other post here but his. Not being critical. Just curious.
@Valjean I was rushed due to message above this one. I can't keep up at all.
I analyzed the word 'fall' in all three versions you showed. Further down in this post, I articulated more questions.
1. from a soldier of the British Raj, battling Hindu forces, it probably means die.
Who is British Raj? I'm google searching.
In Hindi, raj means "rule" or "kingdom." Britain's control over the Indian subcontinent during the 19th and 20th centuries was officially known as British India, but it was commonly referred to as "the British Raj" or simply "the Raj." The raj officially began in 1858, and it lasted through 1947 when the region was ...https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/raj#:~:text=In Hindi, raj means "rule,1947 when the region was

Question I'll ask you, @Valjean what things people in India could have done to prevent this "die" that you are referring to by the word "fall." Please give me examples from your imagination.
2. If it's from a theologin it's probably a doctrinal disagreement.
3. If it's a political statement it probably refers to loss of sovereignty or some political defeat.

google search word sovereignty is = supreme power or authority.
My question is: what is convert when either want to or forced to? When is convert within the word fall?
Another question that I thought of now, due to writing this post, is: Are there more emotions at the edges of countries than in the middle of a country?
Do people in the middle of a country feel more safe within their religion than people on the edge of a country?
What areas of conversion are not within the meaning of fall?
What about interfaith, could people combine religions too? Would that at all inter the word fall or not?

Nah...it just appears to you that we fall because we prostrate rather than kneel.
