This is spot on. I have read and noticed the same.

It's plenty of misconceptions and wrong misguiding beliefs.

You will find that most of them are kids whose parents are following some sort of deras and sects.

I remember seeing a few in UK, whose parents were followers of Darshan das- the one with the red tikha and claims to be a guru of some sort. These poor kids were so confused as they would be expected to worship this DDas and carry out hindu rituals and then would learn about the true 10 gurus from another source and get more confused!!!

For many of them it seemed easier to leave this confusing overlapping sikhism (which is exactly what they are exposed to) and go to a simple religion where they can learn everything from A to Z with ease!!

 

It's these dilutions and parting within sikhism that seems to be the root cause for most cases. Like you say, 100% of them had all the wrong facts about true sikhism.

Until these untrue misguiding facts, sects and divisions continue, sadly,we will continue to see this loss and destroying of true sikhism.
