1/ I am no Hindu scholar, but in my late teens and early 20s I had devoted a lot of tie reading Vivekananda, translations of Upanishads, Vedas, and a few more Hinduism books.
Fortunately I stopped. But, I could identify bigots from the so called practising Hindus.
2/ @hussainhaidry is 100% right in identifying these bigots. They have never studied a scripture. At best they recite a Chalisa here or a random shloka there.
They worship powers, money, influence. They will indulge in corruption at the drop of a hat.
