    Pujya Swami Aksharananda: Hindus, stop preaching all religions are the same!
Pujya Swami Aksharanand Ji, who holds a bachelors/ masters degree in Sanskrit from Banaras Hindu University (India) and Ph.D. in Hindu Studies from the University of Madison, Wisconsin (USA)  spoke extensively regarding the falsity of the “equality of religions” propagated by Gandhi and the modern day gurus and saints.
The concept that “All religions are one” as propagated by Gandhi incessantly is the most destructive concept that is affecting us all. It is not only silly but dangerous fallacy to propagate the idea that all religions are one.... Tracing the origin of Abrahamic religions, Swami Aksharananda said that when Christianity came on the scene, it had to develop an antagonistic philosophy to deal with Judaism. When Islam came on the scene, it had to develop an antagonistic philosophy in order to deal with both Christianity and Judaism. He stressed on the point that Islam and Christianity in their very genesis were hostile and antagonistic creeds.
