Exactly my point why "Hinduism" isn't a "religion" and both "Hindu" and "Hinduism" are meaningless words.

Yeah well I'm not playing by your bullshit definitions.
Too bad. Anyone who understands Hindu philosophy wouldn't argue with me and you were the one who called it stupidity.
While you may not like to be a called a Hindu and may deny it, if you understood the meaning of the word, which really pretty much means anything and everything, you wouldn't have much of a standing in your counterclaims.
Also, if my definitions are bullshit, which they can't be since I actually know some of the philosophy behind them, then you should realise why both words are absolutely meaningless. Again, I must say that the term "reification" comes to mind, which means "to consider or make an abstract idea or concept, real or concrete." in regards to the "invention" of the two words in regards to religion.
