We go to their homes for Christmas, wish them and eat their cake.
They come to my home on a festival and will not touch the prasadam. They will explicitly, bluntly say that they will not eat prasadam offered to Hindu gods.

I AM A CONVERT. I CONVERTED 14 YEARS BACK IN COLLEGE, WITHOUT ANY MONEY (FOR YOUR INFORMATION). MY LIFE IS THE HAPPIEST NOW.. I DON'T HAVE DARKNESS ABIDING IN ME BUT PEACE AND JOY. MY GOD SPEAKS WITH ME AND GUIDES ME EVERYDAY.. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW A TRUE CHRISTIAN'S LIFE IS. THERE IS NO JEALOUSY, CONFUSION, TORMENT, ETC. WHICH IS ALL IN THE WORLD TODAY AND PEOPLE ARE RUNNING AFTER MONEY AND LOSING THEIR FAMILIES, WIFE, KIDS, ETC. THE PROBLEM FOR ALL MANKIND IS SAME TODAY.. WHETHER IN INDIA AS A HINDU, IN PAKISTAN AS A MUSLIM, IN AMERICA AS A "CHRISTIAN" - I AM NOT REFERRING TO ALL AMERICANS BECAUSE ALL ARE NOT CHRISTIANS. YOU DON'T BECOME A CHRISTIAN BECAUSE YOU ARE BORN IN A CHRISTIAN FAMILY. THE DIFFERENCE IS, DO YOU OR DO YOU NOT ACCEPT JESUS. AND FOR THE RECORD, JESUS CHRIST DID NOT DIE FOR THE "CHRISTIAN" HE DIED FOR THE WHOLE WORLD. EVERYONE HAS A FREEWILL WHETHER TO ACCEPT HIM OR REJECT HIM..YOU CHOOSE.

Have you talked to her?. She is struggling.... may be? Is she happy as a Christian? Why is she not converting back to her original religion even in spite of the problems?
Ever thought about this.....What makes Christianity so appealing that the people who convert to get a few extra rupees stay there even when threatened?

IT'S MONEY-MONEY & MONEY. India is a country of poors where people do not have place for shelter, clothes to cover themselves and food to fill their stomach. Thats where Xians come into picture and brainwash these poor people and pay some few pennies which last longs for a month or 2 or max an year after that these poor people are again on streets but the difference is, they are "Christians" now. If these Xians really have to help them then why to convert them to christianity ??
So, my dear friend, it's money which plays a major role in conversions, on which Xians are also enjoying their living, hope this is clear now.
