Anti-conversions laws badly needed
by Vas on Jan 23, 2007 04:40 PM

People in the west take to hinduism, buddhism, and other spiritual practices out of their own free will. In India, the poor and the vulnerable (sick, widows, children) are coerced, bullied, or induced by economic incentives to convert to christianity. Most have never read the bible when they are converted, so how could they possibly assess christianity. How would those who protest the anti-conversion law feel if they, or their loved one, was lying very sick in the hospital, and was told by the band of christian doctors, nurses, and 'social workers' that ONLY christ can save him. This is not 'love' but religious terrorism. Perhaps the rich pampered Indians don't need such laws to protect them, but the poor, the sick and the vulnerable badly need such laws to protect them from these religious vultures.
