Based on your and Dasa'a (and my) posts I would have to conclude that despite calling ourselves hindus we are still very different and diverse on other topics.
(That's one of my fave things about hinduism-the embracing of difference and diversity rather than the montone drone of SOME christians that leave me sighing and ignoring a lot of the time)

The other quote was cut and paste so what gets cut and then pasted is out of my control.
"In the great books of India, an empire spoke to us" Google 13,400 hits.
Getting things right is usually, as in this case, quite easy to control.

If that quote was incorrect then the source was incorrect.
1. Check your sources more carefully.
2. Be a bit less hasty in calling people dishonest when they point out your errors.
3. Verify your informations immediately after someone points out an error instead of simply denying everything.
The fact remains that your OP contains blatantly false claims ie it attributes quotes to people that did not say what as quoted and you are yet to fully admit this to be the case nor apologise for your error.

Indeed, sometimes despite our best intentions things come out wrong, and for the sake of 'straining' the truth you should admit your error and apologize.
This is in keeping with fair conduct on these forums.
I've had to apologize 2 or 3 times ,despite feeling I didn't need to. I still realized that my words were misinterpetted at best, and quite possibly falsified by my hastiness.
An apolgy at this point would speak more to the other posters than anything else.
That way you could move on and show humility and understanding towards others-whether you agree or not.
Your error has been pointed out by several posters. It's really not a big deal, but dare I say you are making it into something bigger than it needs to be.

He has been shown his errors.
His response will show whther he admits them in an honest fashion.
As usual with Dasa's posts the main gist of his OP has been ignored. All we've doing is trying to get him to see th error of his ways.
No need to keep hamming it up.
But I'm sure you will continue to do as you please,(as will Dasa and I),so I will make this my last post on this subject.
Your go 🙂

Originally posted by karoly aczelYou told him to apologize whether he agrees he needs to or not. So you're saying BOTH that you believe he will not be insincere AND that he should at the very least apologize insincerely?
If he does apologize, I believe it will NOT be insincere, however I may be proven wrong yet..

Do you have a comment that is in keeping with the op, or would you like to start a separate thread on Dasa's falsifications?
I believe the falsifications have been clearly pointed out by you and others. No need to go on about it.
Well, not for me, anyway.
