i b:long to jain community. our religious leaders or community leaders for that matter never feel the urge to convert poors to our religion out of some good deed... though our community is engaged in a vast and host of welfare projects across our nation..that's simply because we do not seek to align our identity with some third nation "POPE".
and essentially these christian missionary are hardly here with divine intentions of only helping the humanity.... 50 years are a witness to their mass conversions in almost all of the tribal belts..... inlcuding those of missionaries of charity..
religious alterations should be judged from time to time in relation with the mass of it. an exceptional case of converting to another religion might well go with the sober character of a society.... but not a conversion on commercial factory production basis..
i challenge the missionaries to convince the rich and economically prosperous to convert from Hinduism or Jainism to christianity..
they would not be able to do that... not even Teresa could have..

conversions to christianity in North -eastern states allmost all of them, kerala etc. has only fuelled anti-nationalism, seperatism, and unrest among them and which in turn has flung these people quite away from the mainstream of our nation.
