Why The Myth Of Muslim Population Overtaking Hindus Is Unfounded

Despite myths that Hindus are a 'dying race', recent mathematical models prove there is no way in a thousand years that Muslims can overtake Hindus.

(Translation of my Bengali comment)

Nothing much, it was a meme post on the contemporary society of Begum Rokeya (femous Feminist activist of Bengal cum India). There some young Bangladeshi Muslims commented such a way. They declared her 'atheist', 'islamophobic' and 'one of the worse person of history'.
I know this is very easy to mark Bangladeshis and Muslims as fundamentalists. And I know that the RSS (a Hindu-extrimist organization of India) and BJP (political brunch of RSS, embraces Nazist ideology) supporters of India will indeed do so.
So, I want to give you a reminder. Supposedly in 1999, a member and priest of a popular and so called 'modern' Hindu religious organization,while commenting on Raja Rammohan Roy (one of the father-figures of Bengalee renaissance, Woman-liberation activist, remembered as the "First Modern Man of India"), told, "He was not as good person as we think. He had harmed the Hinduism in many ways".
Before commenting on conservationism of the Muslims, please call up this.
