India has told the Vatican that while it strongly condemned the recent attacks on Christians and other religious groups in Orissa, as a 'flourishing democracy' it was totally capable of dealing with the situation and restoring 'law and order' in the trouble-torn state.12:30 PM on September 03
The pope is head of large number of people with allegiance to his sect. That does not give him moral power to poke his nose foolishly in our internal affairs. His own clergy is doing lots of atrocities as news reports are washing the dirty linen. The UPA govt. has done right thing to Pope for the first time what he deserves. It should not retrace later.
KP Padayachi Saturday, September 06, 2008Conversion work is going on much faster currently than any time before. The preachers say that Dalits,socalled backward castes and tribals are not Hindus and were neglected. So Christian converters will ask them to go to church instead of temple, give christan names, and not disclose them,etc. Very bad trickery.But people keep quiet at this insult to our great religion Hinduism as the government has given uplift of these people to these splitters of our nation, but again these people are also given quotas of jobs education as if they are Hindu lower castes. Nowadays poverty does not know castes,even big merchant caste people are very poor. govt. departments are swallowing all the money given to up lift poverty stricken people. this is very big atrocity in our democracy and destruction of our religion which was good for us for thousands of years and will be so infuture.
BM Sharma Friday, September 05, 2008what caused the violence was Christian propaganda denigrating Hindu gods in idols, castes which are no longer there. A respected Hindu swami doing lot of social service and spiritual education was killed along with a few others. Lie was spread that this carnage was action of Naxalites. The Hindu crowds love their religion and knew the culprits and took law into own hands. this is not correct of course.
Paul Krist ex Xian Friday, September 05, 2008Christian propagandists are within legal rights,to propagate the gosepels of love and compassion, and this is no problem since they are essential tenets of any religion, more so Hinduism. they can do charity with love, but no conversion. Moreover Christianity is full of unsscientific absurdities rejected by the west itself. It should reform itself and liberate the Christian west from the materialism wrought by that religion.
Usha Khanna Friday, September 05, 2008Hinduism is age old as time. Halfbaked and immature western scholars of the 17/ 18 th cent. displayed great zeal to support missionaries in their zeal to 'convert' all Indians into Xianity by putting out absurd theories like Aryan invasion of India from Central Asia, Vedas being just mumbo jumbo of chants without sense, and so on. The objective of these absurdities was to steadily make Indians ashamed of their heritage and adopt the religion of the west. Today these absurdities are totally exposed by outstanding,unbiassed, earnest, and studious scholars in the West itself, echoing what our own spiritual leaders have been saying for millennia. Xianity is just a couple thousand yrs.old, hence the missionaries perpetuate untruths about Hinduism, and misuse secularist rights of free expression as right to convert, selling religion for material enticements to the poor and the ignorant. Except for a tiny fraction of perverse media men who equate the resurgence and self pride of Hindus with the politics of BJP, all Hindus will now throw out, true to their tradition, the onslaughts of missionaries.
Joean Thursday, September 04, 2008If Jesus, Our LORD, can die for the sins of men, I don't see any reason why Indians of Christian faith, should complain. Die like the LORD and you will be in the Kingdom Heaven soon.
