In my experience, those that think about the matter at all tend to idealize the East,
It might just be that they continue to condescend and depict them as "Godless" and spiritually lost ...or refer to their temple dancers as whores , and their most sacred symbols as "abominations" . newadvent.org
Have you ever seen the beauty and energy shine from the spirit of the Bharat Natyam Dancers of Saivite Hinduism , Neo ? Did they strike you as "whores" doing lewd , obscene or lascivious gestures ?
No . It is a beautiful artform done with in a very wonderfully exquisite , graceful, & energetic spirit of joyous devotion. A cultural gift to be inspiring to all humanity.
You are well traveled and have admired many things of the east . Tell me why would anyone want to idealize a religion that has as it's "soul" purpose the endless rant of "we have God on our side" , yet cannot recognize a pure spiritual act if they saw one ?
What is more sinister than continuation of spreading such evil lies and trash propaganda to this day , and try to keep up any sense of credibility of your own ? Could they recognize anything that remotely resembled the "spiritual" outside of their own sphere if it fell on their heads in broad daylight?
I doubt it Neo, for God almighty bestowed upon them the right to Judge. It isn't In God We Trust , but
----->" In God We Thrust upon you ", while we hide & clean up our own messes afterwords. Just let us spread our lies first . Such propaganda and misrepresentation is a disgrace, not a "grace" in the free world neo.
