I was born and brought up a Catholic. So, naturally, my knowledge about Hinduism is limited. This is just an attempt to learn more about my own country and my own people. :) Plus, I am developing a very strong interest in Paganism, and Hinduism comes under the umbrella of Paganism. Cheers and thanks for the response.
