Your attitude is the creator of the term "holier than thou". Not a legacy to be proud of sir. These mundane religionists as you call them are called by Krsna as mahatmas. He says He will make their faith strong due to their surrender to Him even if it is for money or from distress. He never says that they will become mice or ants in His house. Christ's church is the house of Krsna. And Srila Prabhupada was in a far better position to judge other religions than you sir and he stated the following: "... anindaya is that we should not criticize others methods of religion. There are different types of religious systems operating under different qualities of material nature. When people are mostly under the modes of passion and ignorance, then their system of religion will be of the same quality. A devotee, instead of criticizing such systems, will encourage the followers to stick to their principles so that gradually they can come to the platform of religion in goodness. Simply by criticizing them, a devotee's mind will be agitated. Thus a devotee should tolerate and learn to stop agitation."
