<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->We all wish and believe that Hinduism is a monolithic, united 'religion' as opposed to other belief-sets like Islam or Christianity.
<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Every Hindu knows Hinduism is not monolithic.
This is the beauty of Hinduism.
That does not mean we are not a united religion.
Hindu political unity is of paramount importance.
Theological conformity has never been a prerequisite for this.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->It is not so. In fact, Madhava Vaishnavites believe that Sankara is a Demon opposed diabolically to truth who took birth as a Brahmana to spread mischief and confusion.

The Great Acharya Sri Ananda Tirtha never made such a statement.
I have never seen Madhavas say this either.
So either back up your statements with proof or quit lying.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Today, as I see it, Christian evangelists are only biting at the periphery of our Hindu society.

"Our Hindu" ?
That's nice. So you consider yourself part of Hinduism?
