However they may be, denial of existence of god or atheism is still Hinduism [1]. Not to mention, In 1995 Supreme Court [2] came up with the following ruling, "(29). When we think of the Hindu religion, we find it difficult, if not impossible, to define Hindu religion or even adequately describe it. Unlike other religions in the world, the Hindu religion does not claim any one prophet; it does not worship any one God; it does not subscribe to any one dogma; it does not believe in any one philosophic concept; it does not follow any one set of religious rites or performances; in fact, it does not appear to satisfy the narrow traditional features of any religion of creed. It may broadly be described as a way of life and nothing more." I am no religious fanatic and I think the article was an interesting comparison of Hinduism and Open Source. They are both vast and diverse.
