You should never hold an entire religion responsible for the actions of individuals.

The simple truth is that many religions enable and condone extreme activity such as this.

These people wouldn't have rioted because someone cut hair on a Tuesday if it weren't for their religion. Fact.

First of all religons don't condone and enable extreve activity like this.

These people wouldn't have rioted, in these scenarios if they weren't religious, I agree with that, however lots of atheists groups, (normally communists) have killed religious leaders as they want to institute state atheism and they will kill any counter revolutionary. There have also been lots of religious leaders/religious people dead because of hatred for religion by atheists and anti-theists.

Cory's post is a flagrant and morally irresponsible overgeneralization but

Hindutva is one of the worst religious movements in the world.

Agreed.  My church does missions with and communicates with multiple Reformed churches in India, and the persecution of Christians has really ramped up thanks to that ideology.  It's getting harder to preach the word of God there, and the Hindus tend to be extremely intolerant of the local Christians.

I don't mean to be dick*k head but what's with Christians trying to convert Hindus and try to change eastern, Hindu culture to western, christian culture. I know people who go up to  houses, knock make speech about how everyone should convert and about how the Hindu religion is fake. The US government funds these programs for 'charity' even though a substantial amount of work they do is converting peole and wanting more western cultures.
