Fictional Pain
by Jose on Feb 02, 2006 01:21 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

To say that Hindus are oppressed by Christians in India is meaningless ranting. The author needs to give instances of Christian oprression of the Hindus in India currently in order to support his statement. The author may be angry about certain things happening nationally and internationally. But the blame should go to where blame belongs. There are umpteen instances of violence against Christians in India by Hindu fundamentalists. Can the author cite a single instance of Indian Christians being violent towards Hindus in India?

There are hundreds of cases of christians physically attacking Hindus in the northeastern states where Christians are a majority.This includes several cases of demolition of Hindu temples as reported by the national media. The christians have also attacked the Hindus when the portugheese were ruling Goa. So may be the christians are just waiting for their numbers to increase sufficiently in other parts of India to start the physical intimidation of other religions. Or at least that is what happened in any place where the Christians have become majority. Remember East Timor also. Though physical intimidation may not bethere you are conducting many aggressive actions against Hindus throughout India. Your efforts to convert innocent Hindus by using foreign funds and illegal methods in the name of service(like denying food and medicines to Tsunami victims if they don't convert,denying medical care, education, food etc to hindus unless they convert) are indeed a form of violence against Hindus. The recent rape of a hindu nursing student by fanatic followers of evangelist Yohannan in kerala, the fraud committed by missionaries like Benny Hinn, Yohannan, Dinakaran are forms of violence.
