Hindu prayer in the Senate draws protesters

The Story

Three protesters disrupted a prayer by a Hindu chaplain Thursday at the opening of a Senate hearing, calling it an abomination and shouting slogans about Jesus Christ.

It was the first time the daily prayer that opens Senate proceedings was said by a Hindu chaplain.

Capitol police said two women and one man were arrested and charged with causing a disruption in the public gallery of the Senate. The three started shouting when guest Chaplain Rajan Zed, a Hindu from Nevada, began his prayer. Watch the disruption

    Unluckily, the protesters are protesting out of fear.

    Fear that more people will be interested in a CULTURE/RELIGION called Hinduism, , which is followed by more than 800 million people on earth.

    Fear that more people will be interested in a CULTURE/RELIGION called Hinduism, which respect all religions and worship , One and Only God which express itself in trillions of forms.

    Fear that more people will be interested in a CULTURE/RELIGION called Hinduism, which states SALVATION IS FOR ALL IRRESPECTIVE OF ONE IS A HINDU OR NOT. ,

    Knowingly or unknowingly Protesters are making more people interested in Hinduism. I am so happy that protesters are making more people to really study all about Hinduism which is older than Greek and Egyptian civilizations.
