Is it true that Hinduism is tradition and practice rather than a religion?
Christian missionaries have often used the ploy that the indigenous religion is really only a culture, a tradition and practice, in order to make it easier for listeners to accept their message. The logic is that if the local religion and Christianity are not in direct opposition, then no harm is done in embracing Christianity. Perhaps later the convert can be told that the old ways are unChristian and must be abandoned. If religion is worship of a god or gods, then Christianity and Hinduism are both religions. If a religion has sacred scriptures, then Christianity and Hinduism are both religions. If a religion teaches high moral values and prohibits falsehoods and deception, then Hinduism is a religion.
