“A Slap in the Face to Every Christian”
Quote:Nikki Haley’s Son Nalin Blasts Vivek Ramaswamy Over ‘Blasphemous’ Holy Trinity Comparison to Hindu Deities
The controversy centers on remarks Ramaswamy made during a Turning Point USA event in Montana, where he drew theological parallels between Christian and Hindu concepts of the divine.
Nalin Haley, a 24-year-old recent convert to Catholicism, took to X with a scathing rebuke of Ramaswamy’s comments.
“Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse. Comparing the Holy Trinity to your 330 million gods is blasphemous, disrespectful, and a slap in the face to every Christian,” Nalin wrote, according to Livemint. “If you’re gonna run for governor in a state that is Christian, have the decency to learn our faith and not slander it.”
Ramaswamy’s comments came during an exchange with a young Christian attendee at a University of Minnesota event who questioned whether his Hindu faith aligned with “Christian values.”
Ramaswamy responded by explaining that he practices monotheism through the Vedanta tradition of Advaita philosophy and suggested conceptual similarities between Hindu understanding of divine manifestations and the Christian doctrine of the Holy Trinity. “Doesn’t make you a polytheist, does it?” Ramaswamy reportedly asked, adding that both faiths reconcile “the one and the many.”

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
