It is because Hinduism which respects all sorts of gods that Christians, Muslims are allowed to practice their religion. If we were an Islamic majority country, your secularism would not have had a chance to survive.
Likewise, most Christian countries too have adopted Hindu principles and hence are just about starting to become tolerant to other religions, but already they are banning mosque minarets and burkhas and what not.
If you were living in USA, they will place all sorts of legal hurdles in your way even to build a temple resulting in decades of delay in building one to building it in the outskirts of the city. That is the level of tolerance they have even now.
So make no mistake, it is because of Hinduism we are what we are.
