Just wondering because I noticed that the gods section consisted of articles from Hinduism Today, and the veiw that "the gods literally exist" is put forth as fact, which may lead nonhindus to believe that's what we ALL believe. It's not that I'm offended, it just may make for confusion on the part of nonhindus if they meet someone like myself, who sees the forms of God as symbolic, rather than literal...
It just seems somewhat presumptuous to submit that as "what hindus beleive" when there are so many varieties of Hindus in the world.
