Actually the Vedas are very much a part of the modern Hinduism rather than being a distinct entity, modern Hinduism is pretty much derived from the Vedic faith. There is nothing long-dead about the Vedas or the Vedic texts.Ahriman238 wrote:
So if read the Vedics, and claim to follow the Vedic religion as distinct from Hinduism (which no one has done in a very long time) and assume dark skin= low caste, it's reaching but sort of works.
Mind, it's the same as being an asshole to everyone and saying it's my religious freedom to do so because I believe in the Egyptian Gods, and the ancient Egyptian religion teaches me that non-Egyptians are inhuman. It may even be true, there is some evidence that sort of implies it, but mostly I'm just an asshole.
I am really skeptical about a white Texan reviving a long-dead Indian religion, and doing so sincerely.
On topic this guy is funny. He probably connected Vedic and Aryan and used that to justify his racism.
