@JDVance What a disgusting comment, and it's hardly been the only one along these lines.
First off, the question was from a person seemingly to my left, about my interfaith marriage. I'm a public figure, and people are curious, and I wasn't going to avoid the question. (1)
@JDVance Second, my Hindu faith tells me the Vedic Scriptures are true and good for human beings. My Husband -- as I said at the TPUSA--is the most amazing blessing I have in my life. He himself encouraged me to reengage with my faith many years ago. (2)
@JDVance He is not a Hindu and has no plans to convert, but like many people in an interfaith marriage--or any interfaith relationship--I hope he may one day see things as I do. (3)
@JDVance Regardless, I'll continue to love and support him and talk to him about faith and life and everything else, because he's my husband. (4)
@JDVance Third, posts like this wreak of anti-Hindu bigotry. Yes, Hindus have beliefs. And yes, those beliefs have many consequences, one of which is that we want to share them with other people. That's a completely normal thing, and anyone who's telling you otherwise has an agenda. (5)
@JDVance So, Mr Vance, how do you like the same comments from if your wife has been in your place. Sounds ironical, Doesn't it!
