So now you found a "Westerner and a born Christian" to add in the bashing of "Marxists and Pseuso Secularists" in India and defend the fascist right wing ideaology. Congratulations!!
He says he is ashamed of what is happening in India. And what he is ashamed of? "... a Sikh prime minister where there are only 2 per cent Sikhs and a Muslim President with only 10 per cent Muslims?..." Is it a matter of shame really? I, as an Indian am proud of this very reality. He says Sonia Gandhi, a christian has become supreme power. Well she is an Indian citizen, leader of the rulling party and coalition and has not done anything so far which could be termed extra-constitutional. What is his problem then?
He talks about some christian religious leader ("quack" in his words) coming to India and converting poor. Conversion is an issue highly debated. But my question is what are conditions leading to conversion in India. Why not he talks about extreme poverty, misery, starvation, ill-health, unemployemnt situation of majority of dalits and adivasis. And what he feels about our great Chandraswamis. We all know that religion provides a cover for many ill-doers and they hide themselves... to cont.
