hindu self-hate has been achieved by the kkkangress' machinations.
hindus have become embarrassed to identify themselves as hindus. how many times have you heard someone saying "i was born to hindu parents, but i am [fill in the blanks: atheist, agnostic, unreligious]"? that is a good sign of a pseudo-secularist, deracinated, brainwashed idiot.

Subject: Hindus and Mood of Middle Class India
To:
In this 2008 article entitled "Mood of Middle India", Vir Sanghvi who
was part of the audition of 400 potential contestants of the popular
show "Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?" notes the following when it
comes to religion identification bythe participants.

"here are some of the things I learnt about the mood of middle India
while participating in this process.
Religion: For some reason, the first question on the application form
asks contestants to state their religion. I found that all religious
minorities (Christians, Sikhs, Muslims etc) gave straightforward
answers. But a surprisingly large number of Hindus took exception. On
many forms, people wrote things like "humanist" or "agnostic". It was
almost as though they resented being asked.
Not that there was any objection to God himself. The form asked people
to describe themselves. One of the most common descriptions was
"God-fearing" used in a positive sense. On the other hand, when
contestants were asked what they would do with the Rs. 5 crore if
they won, some said they would give it to charity, but nobody
mentioned a religious charity, a temple, a mosque or whatever.
Indian secularism also seems alive and well among the middle class.
There were many Muslim applicants and, without exception, all of those
whose auditions I saw were unselfconscious and proud of their Muslim
identities. Many women in burkhas turned up to sing. So did many men
in skullcaps and beards.
They referred to their Islamic identities in their auditions ("Hai
Allah!" etc) in a matter-of-fact way and acted as though it made no
difference — which, of course, it should not. At a time when there
are fears about the communalisation of the middle class, it was
encouraging to see Indian secularism in action.
As interesting for me was the column where contestants were asked to
list their close friends. Many Hindus listed Muslims and, oddly
enough, Muslims tended to list mainly Hindus."
