Acceptance...............

     The Hindoos assert, that if the Author of the Universe preferred one religion to another, that only could prevail of which he approved; because to presume such preference while we see so many different religions would be the height of impiety, as it would be supposing injustice towards those he left ignorant of his will; and they therefore conclude, that every religion is particularly adapted to the country and the people where it is practiced, and that all in their original purity are equally acceptable to God.
