And what'll you do if your existence is threatened ?

"And fight against them until there is no fitnah and [until] the religion [i.e., worship], all of it, is for Allah. And if they cease - then indeed, Allah is Seeing of what they do"

Quran : 8:39

You can preach non violence, but if your non violence is letting others unleash violence against you & it's threatening your existence, that's when you defend yourself through violence. Accommodation of diversities, including multiple expressions of the divine is valid only if..

such diversities r not threatening your own faith, through that ur existence. There's no point in accommodating diversities if they want to destroy u&impose uniformity. So the acceptance of diversity should b based on whether that diversity is threatening diversity itself or not

Sanatan Dharma itself is diverse, other indigenous religions emerged from it such as Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism etc were able to co-exist with Hinduism bcz all of them have Sanatan Dharma's diversity in its core. That's not the case with Abrahmic religions. They don't accept..

diversity, the core of their religions is uniformity. Just like how the branches of sanatan dharma are accepting diversity&included in its core, because the root, ie, sanatan dharma itself is diverse, the abrahamic religions are adhering to its roots where diversity is prohibited

Sanatan dharma&its branches extending its diversity feature to Abrahamic religions, ie something that's completely against the diversity feature&giving it a place to grow is like committing suicide. Bcz when u do that, you're offering uniformity a place to grow&replace diversity

You can demand diversity only if the diversity you're applying to is fond of diversity. If you're applying diversity to those who want uniformity, then what you're doing is nothing but the destruction of diversity while you strangely act like you're defending diversity!

And no, it doesn't matter what some followers of Abrahamic religions are saying. What some people do or say can't be used to define a religion. You should analyze its scriptures. Followers of Abrahamic religions saying that they accept diversity is a paradox bcz the religious..

books that made them who they're, ie, follower of abrahamic faiths, is completely opposite to diversity & it's seeking uniformity. Then how can some of its followers claim that they support diversity? Either they don't know their religion or they're lying (taqiyya)
