There are so many different religions in our world that it’s hard to be able to recall and remember and know every one. I decided to research Hinduism because it’s the third largest religion in the world after Christianity and Islam. Something that people find unique about Hinduism is that it does not have one single founder; it is combined together from all the different religious groups since 1500 BCE. This religion is regarded as one of the oldest religions in the world. Until a short while ago, India’s government was controlled by a Hindu Nationalistic Political Party, which led to the separation of Church and State. Interestingly enough the United States was not the only country who separated Church from State so this is a prime example of when the Church has too much control and power the country fights back. I find it to be interesting the similarities each religion has to one another maybe there is only one religion and it is the combination of all religions….
