Hello Notch, thanks for your response.
It's a good question. I'm guessing the reason you're asking is to try to prompt a thought that goes something like: "I'd be a Hindu, because that's what I'm raised to be. So what I believe has nothing to do with what's true, it's only what I was raised to believe."
That's almost always the angle you're aiming at by asking this kind of question.
But it's logically fallacious in about a dozen different ways.
For starters, imagine that I'm raised in a home that believes in the scientific method and logical reasoning.
Does that make them wrong, just because it's what I'm raised to believe? Of course not.
Whether it's right or wrong has nothing to do with whether I'm raised to believe it. I could be raised to believe lies or truth.
The claims need to be addressed individually. You can't wipe them away just because it's what you were raised to believe. You need to search them out, test them, analyze them.
I've searched Christianity to death. I keep engaging on atheist-dominated websites, because I want my beliefs to be challenged. I have no interest in echo chambers that reinforce false beliefs. If Christianity is true, it should be able to stand amidst every challenge.
And that's what I've found, over and over and over again.
Further, there are legions of stories of Jesus showing up to people in dreams and visions, in Hindu villages, in Muslim villages, to people all over the world. I've written about several of these experiences on Medium.
Jesus isn't limited to regions that already know about Him.
Jesus reaches people who have never met a Christian and never held a Bible.
Eventually, some of these people do meet Christians, and they share their experiences. The Jesus they met matches exactly with the Jesus in the Gospels. Time after time after time.
Again, if you want to see some of these stories, look through my timeline.
I'm confident that if I was born to a Hindu family, God would reach me there. He's able to reach anybody anywhere. I've seen it over and over. He really is that good.
