Mudy, I was of the same opinion before, but had to change my view. va~Nga is as much Hindu to the very core, as any other parts of bhArata, maybe more. Only there is an apparent fear, tending towards cowardice, due to prolonged jihad, followed by colonial suppression, followed by commie terrorism, and a resulting mixture of shame of defeat and fear. All of this results in one easily turning to anti-Hindu/secularist/commie -- that is convenient. But, scratch a bit, and the Hindu flame is very much there unextinguished, although silent and latent.
The samples you have met, or we all see in media, or in politics -- beleive me, they do not represent the majority of va~Nga, only vocal minority.
