Hinduism_History_And_Perspectives

Hinduism:History And Perspectives Hinduism is easily the oldest major world religion that is still in use today. It has not only survived countless attacks but has also thrived and has changed little to none in the last 2500-3000 years. Hinduism has been able to accomplish this through a variety of traits that it possesses. One such trait is that Hinduism is inclusive. By inclusive I mean that practicing Hindus never try to convert a Christian, Jew, or Muslim to their exact manner of theological thought. Instead, they see other religious practitioners as Hindus themselves; Hindus that are praying to one of many other gods. This leads to another reason that Hinduism has conquered adversity. That is, Hinduism's tremendous variety in ways and means of worship. A third reason that Hinduism has been so popular is that it is more than just a religion; it is an entire way of life. For these and many other reasons, Hinduism has overcome millennia and will overcome even more. Hinduism came to be roughly what we know it as today between 1500-500 BCE.
