Do you have any inkling of how stupid you look saying, "I forgive you." Are you saying this to your Christ, by whom we are often told to take example? So, still no evidence then for your god, or any other? I wonder why? But I am glad you agreed with why you were wrong about the Hindu question, as you originally demanded. I hope all this has helped.

Since you're just a miserable troll who doesn't believe in Christ or the Hindu gods, it really doesn't matter. You're not here for discussion. You're just here to troll.

Whether he rose from the dead and was God on earth is another matter. But we have been discussing Erjen, all along. The difference being, I do so without personal insults. Rudeness, btw is a one sign of defensiveness when there is nothing else to dispute with.

I was taught by Hindu Indians that you cannot convert into Hinduism, but must be born into the religion.

Since you allow that Christ existed, how would you explain the miracles He is said to have performed? It's for the credulous to explain, not me. I allow Christ the man existed since to say a man once lived that is an ordinary enough claim. The Gospels, with all their direct quotes, accounts and etc, far more than for many other men we take to have lived - are well enough to make such claim reasonable. Christ the God is another thing entirely. None of the purported miracles and central myths of Christianity were noted by any other contemporary writers, not even the leading Jewish ones. Accounts are hearsay by anonymous writers (the Gospel authors being attributed by more or less reliable tradition), written, edited and interpolated, often years after events, and written for a proselytzing purpose. Hence there is no extraordinary evidence for extraordinary claims. See how this works?

There is no bar in converting from any religion to Hinduism or vice-versa. Vedas speak about Mlecchas as someone who is not Vedic and not Indian. Basically, mlecchas are people who speak an illegible language and not Sanskrit. The concept of geography, religion and language was all mixed with each other to be indistinguishable. Hinduism doesn't have a conversion ritual unlike similar ceremony in Christianity or Islam which causes the inadvertent feeling of disbelief in the believer about his conversion. Conversion only requires that person to accept the Hindu way of life and leading a Dharmic life.
