I believe that Hinduism is a very ancient religion, that has some very philosophical thoughts put into its religion. I am speaking from the perspective as a Hindu myself. Some of the traditions that we have, are just so interesting, that i always want to know more abotu it. all of the religious occasions that we have, has so much ancient background into it, that it really amazes me. I am really proud of who i am, and for what i represent, cause honestly, the religion of Hinduism is really interesting to learn or know more about...i was born in America, but i taught myself alot about Hinduism and was quite amazed.

I'm a SHE. Can't you tell from my photo or my profile?\n\nBecause, my family is Buddhist. Buddhism is an atheistic philosophy. Therefore, I do not have any beliefs in God.\n\nThere are about 30 million atheists in America, 41 million in Europe ... why shine the spotlight on me?

It's not Buddhism because there are Buddhist warriors. Look it up. I would have to say the most peaceful religion is the one that no one practices.

Lots. A whole lot. Very very many. Hinduism alone recognizes a few million--they may actually have one of the more accurate numbers, as Hinduism recognizes gods of other religions as well.

Short answer: people.\n\n"Hinduism (Sanskrit: हिन्दू धर्म, Hindū Dharma, also known as सनातन धर्म, Sanātana Dharma) is a religion that originated on the Indian Subcontinent. Hinduism encompasses many religious beliefs, practices, and denominations. Most Hindus believe in a supreme cosmic spirit called Brahman, who is worshipped in many forms, represented by individual deities such as Vishnu, Shiva and Shakti. Hinduism centers around a variety of practices that are meant to help one experience the divinity that is everywhere and realize the true nature of the Self."\n\n"Modern Hinduism evolved from the ancient Vedic tradition (Vaidika paramparā). Prominent themes in Hinduism include Dharma (individual ethics, duties and obligations), Samsāra (rebirth), Karma (right action), and Moksha (salvation). Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism all share some traits in common with Hinduism, as all these religions originated in India, and all focus on self-improvement for the ultimate purpose of attaining personal spiritual experience."

Yes there are.  Look around any of the better universities and you'll find many students from India in graduate school, many are Hindu, not all.  In my student days I knew a number of devout Hindus in the upper Midwest and some gathered together for social and/or religious celebrations frequently.

Islam is but hinduism is gaining ground.  However, the fastest going is people leaving beliefs completely becoming either agnostic or athiests
