Doc's position is on his veranda, in his rocking chair, plucking his banjo, sipping poteen and muttering all sorts of blarney.
Watched over by a statue of the Virgin Mary of course.
Well, in my imagination.

I knew Pie was Hindu even before I knew him. I recall him telling me about an Indian dish he made for DARTvivor and also knew he said once he was vegetarian and looking at the philosophies of Hinduism, the dots lined up

There are a minority within Hinduism (especially Tamil Hindus) who oppose the term because it is a phrase British Colonists forced onto them by pooling together what were different philosophical groups within a broaders spectrum.
The Shiva branch of what's now known as Hinduism was its own religion entirely, called Shaivism and the Vishnu branch was known as Vaishnavism. In fact, they believed the same blue god was a different person (the Vaishnavism believed that same individual was an entity with the values and personality that the British made them call Vishnu and the Shaivanists didn't actually believe Shiva was a god but instead had a more abstract concept). As for Brahma, that was several pagan religions meshed into one, in order to bring peace amongst different factions and castes within India.
The idea of statues being sacred was, again, a separate religion known as Nadukkal-worship and it is from Nadukkal sculpturists that the British got the idea to fuse Vaishnavism and Shaivanism into one.
Ancient 'Hindu scriptures' such as the Vedas, Mahabharata and Ramayana, were actually separate concepts and religions to one another. Vaishnavism is based more on Ramayana while Shaivanism is based more on Mahabharata.
The idea of Hinduism and all of it fitting together in one is from the British trying to 'define' and pool together all the native Sanskrit ideologies still present in India and put it into one religion on its own. That's also why Hinduism is so confusing and has so many demigods, this is because the Nadukkal worshippers didn't follow any kind of Hinduism at all, they just liked to make statues and worship them (literally), it was a hobby and specialist craft.

Shaivism.....Worship of a humanesque godhead.

@Dr.Franklin
The answers you gave, can you find anything in them that Mussolini wouldn't have answered, other than specifics about you?
I specify Mussolini because Nazism was an unusually extreme version of Fascism, so Hitler would be an unnecessary comparison.

@Dr.Franklin
For sure Doc.
It would be interesting to see and hear what Debatearters are actually like, in the flesh.

@RationalMadman
Mussolini was excessively aggressive, i want an isolationist policy
