varun gandhi : a threat to hinduism

hi all,
a long time since i have put pen to paper electronically that is..
limited access to this beautiful media called as internet is one of the reasons rather an excuse, however i will put the blame squarely on my lethargy.
yeah the issue that shook me up from lethargy is very dear to my heart.
for the few of you who will go through my post would have been caught by surprise when i say that varun gandhi is a threat to the Hinduism. many wont agree but before i take up this issue i must make it clear that i am a hindu and am as much proud of being one as Varun gandhi can possibly think of. but what  mr varun gandhi has done is that he has hurt my pride in being an hindu and the pride of all those who are proud hindus.
his statements while may increase his vote bank by way of misleading the innocent voters who have thier own ideas of hinduism and he may establish himself as the frontrunner in the league of bal thakre and raj thakre, he has caused irreparable damage to the notion of hinnduism. 
he hurts the very essence of hinduism when he says nobody other than hindus are welcome in this country. the hinduism  prides itself in being an all encompassing all inclusive religion and over the centuries we have accepted all with open arms in true spirit of ' vasudhaiv kutumbakam'. how dare he say on behalf of all hindus who till now had no problem buying flowers for puja from a muslim vendor. 
for those who cant see what damage he is causing to us the Hindus, you only have to look around and see what the muslim hardliners and people of the ilk of taliban have done to the Islam. an average muslim is seen with an eye of suspesion for no fault of his in all western countries and wherever he is in minority thanks to these hardliners. does varun gandhi want that we hindus are also looked as potential threat to the humanity in the days to come. well thats what he is doing.
it may not be pallatable to a hindus who want a rightful place for hindus and hinduism. well if u are a non marathi hindu then try and draw a parallel to what do u feel when raj thakre gives a call to evict all non marathis from mumbai. his concept of 'apla manoos' does not include u and u dont feel any better. hope u get the argument.

Good to see you buddy after god knows how long time. And, I must thank varun in some way for instigating you to write. That said, I simply share your sentiments, and perhaps majority of sane Hindus will do the same. No wonder BJP is finding itself in such a mess. Keep writing. Cheers!

Obviously sir. His idea is at crossroads with the ideals on which this country was made. India is a secular country and Hinduism is tolerant. (Although i am not a pious one) The very essence of the relegion are dirtied by politicians who use it for selfish reasons aka votebanks.
