17.) Sikhs came out of Hindus / Gurus were from Hindu families / Sikhi is a sect of Hinduism.

Some Hindus say Sikhs came out of Hinduism to feel superior; they say they are a tree religion and others are branches, but they are wrong because dharm is not in DNA. We don't care if our ancestors were Hindus; neither did the Gurus care.Everything having an origin and being older does not mean you are better than someone or that you are right. Guru Nanak said exactly this: that pandits and qazis are trying to take ownership of truth. Hindus don't have any legal claim over the civilization of the subcontinent.Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists have equal rights over it. According to this logic, humans came out of Africa, so we should go back and follow their native religion.
