You are right that Hinduism is very diverse is India(especially between North India and South India), but there are few thing wrong in your view. > Firstly, the census data you linked to still relies on the British definition of "Hindu". No. Here are the results of 2011 Indian Census(10 years after the earlier map, but almost same percentage of Hindu): Hinduism (80.3%) Islam (13.7%) Christianity (2.3%) Sikhism (1.7%) Buddhism (0.7%) Jainism (0.4%) Other religions (0.7%) Religion not stated (0.2%) > In Kerala, Hindus even eat beef from cows which would be considered a sacrilege in Uttar Pradesh. Everywhere there are Hindus who eat beef and Hindus who resorts to violence against people eating beef. But, yeah, you are right in that it is more common in the south to eat beef(specially in one state). But still, what is your point? That female foeticide is done by one type of Hindu and not other? This also does not hold much water, as Kerala has lowest percentage of Hindus in the South and highest female to male ratio in India(also one of the most educated, most rich, most socialistic).
