Wait, what? Islam consider Jesus to be the sixth prophet of God, second in holiness only to Muhammed.
Ah, you mean that hindus don't accept Islam? Makes more sense, although a but off topic and not really correct. Hindus generally have nothing against Islam as such, it's just that their forefathers was conquered & oppressed by muslims and some of them still hold a grudge.
Mare accurate would be that most Hindus are accepting of Islam nowadays but when one becomes well versed in the Vedic text that acceptance tends to wash away, if the history of damages Muslims did against India did not do the trick already.
The reason is that Muhammad and his religion resemble a foretold corrupt enemy of Vishnu a little too well (seriously, Mahammada is even closer than you think when you consider the original languages). The same can be said of the Buddhists, being an offshoot of Hinduism and all, a reverse situation of the Aztecs mistaking Cortez for a coming savior.

Question: Do the entries on this trope page have to be about Jesus Christ himself? Or are Jesus Analogues acceptable as well?

Buddha was Canadian?
Edited by Westrim I rarely visit the forums to avoid the cynicism ooze.
Heck Yeah! Siddharta/Buddha was totally Canadian, Bodhi Trees grow in Canada, and Buddha is a pretty cool guy, and a Deadpan Snarker at that. Heck yes!
"Many Hindus, who tend to be extremely accepting of other religions..."
Well, besides Islam. :P
