Frankly I couldn't care less if many of those staunch Hindus/critics claim, that Jesus came later than their supposed revealed hinduistic roots appeared...
Before Abraham was, Christ is, as simple as that...plus messianic prophecy simply cannot be topped by anything in their books...and yes, Jesus had His jewish roots and by this is "embedded" in all the OT-developments...His coming "later" in the flesh has just very specific reasons...
Anyway...I didn't read too much of the material yet, but am interested, to see deeper, where the Indians got their beliefs and traditions from...other than just tracing things back to Noah and over the years I found some intriguing things...and some I might have to heavily revise...Hinduism being probably much younger...Sanskrit may be much younger than claimed by the staunch Hindus
Prof. M.M.Ninan Emergence-of-Hinduism-from-Christianity
here's a quote from a chat-board:
So I was reading Prof. M.M.Ninan's book "Hinduism a Christian Heresy"
Prof. M.M.Ninan is a Professor of Theoretical Physics by training. He has taught Physics in the Universities around the world: Bombay (India: Royal Institute of Science), Ethiopia, Ghana, Jamaica, The Yemen Arab Republic, Sudan (Universities of Khartoun, Gezira and Juba), as well as in the United States of America. He was the President of the Hindustan Academy of Engineering and Applied Sciences of Bangalore University.
Prof M.M.Ninan and his wife Mrs. Ponnamma Ninan - a sociologist, teacher - has taught extensively on the Bible in Yemen, Sudan, India and United States. He was the first Moderator/Chairman of the International Christian Fellowship of the Yemen Arab Republic (the first Yemeni Christian Church established since the massacre of Yemeni "Thomas Christians" by Islam in 6th c AD.) He was one of the pioneers of the Sudan Pentecostal Churches and of the Sudan Theological College, where he taught theology for over five years (during his tenure as Professor of Physics in the University of Juba in the South Sudan.)
