Martin-
But, it flatters their goD.  Here's a Hindu big-wig who wants to convert
to Xianity.  You're right that it isn't flattering to the xians, but it
makes Hinduism look bad too.

With so much misinformation on the net, I value good references for
quotes.  But, even then, they may not be enough - one xian called me a
loser/liar/... when I gave him some Hitler quotes showing that he was an
xian and the quote references were from Hitler's book _Mein Kampf_.  Go
figure.
