Just an FYI - Richard Dawkins recently created a furor by criticizing a particular religion for the lack of Nobel Laureates in them due to their religious fanatism. And it was not Christianity .. Had he known a little more on Hinduism and its religious practices, he would have critic-ed them as well.
KH criticizes Hinduism a lot more and talks very little about other religious practices despite that he has the exposure to all the main religions.
