The real Problem
by Dinkar Singh on May 11, 2005 10:13 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

None of us has understand the real problem. The root cause problem is conversition. Whereever ther is conversion the problem will arrise as the writer had wrote the movement supported by Church.

The biggest question rise once conversition is about their identity as the past identity is of ancient Indian culture which is of hinduism thus this church wants to destroy this identity in result of destroying the identity of Indian culture.

This conversion is showing its result in North East and will further show in other parts of India if not countered by RSS.

The RSS is a bunch of violent hooligans. Christianity was in India somewhere before the 1-4 Century AD, nearly two thousand years ago. Christianity is not a 'White' or 'European' or 'Western' thing.

I'm Christian, but I have no intention of destroying India or Indian culture. To the contrary, I'm an Indian, and extremely proud of it too. And I don't agree with the Westerners on many issues.

I have NO problem with Hinduism or Islam or Buddhism etc. and I have no intention of trying to destroy these religions. And it would be a pointless battle in any case.

If I want, can I not tell others of my personal religious beliefs? And if they too believe this, then is it not their right to convert?

I do not endorse forced conversions and I think that those who forcibly convert others should be put in jail.

India is not a land of one religion but many. Did the arrival of Islam and the rise of Buddhism and Jainism take away from the Indian culture? No? Then why do you think that Christianity will do that to India?

Please keep an open mind. I love my country just as much as you do, even though I am Christian. I will fight anyone who tries to invade it, Christian or not.
