| ceres said: I'd never be able to bring myself to play a game that actually makes it a point to promote a religion. I don't mind creating a new religion that might be based on existing ones but I don't want any religion thrown in my face whether it be christianity, judaism, hinduism, etc. |
That's cool, but a point that you might want to consider is that hinduism unlike the abramic faiths-Christianity Islam Judaism, is more of a cultural-ethnic entity with philosophical elements than a religion proper. Sure, there are many deities, but with having so many means that your society ends up being very loosely attached to one or any of them. Nobody in India cares if you are an atheist. There is no indian equivalent to christian conservatives.
So, hinduism is more about being indian I think than about the religious aspects. btw, I'm a white boy that likes asian culture so i'm probably biased
