Tathagata... what u r saying about xtianity upto some extent is true.... but u can call them Christendom (false xtianity) instead of true Xtianity.... what the churches and priests and popes are doing today or have done in the past is in sharp contrast to what was taught by Jesus or what is written in the Bible.... and abt conversion... yes giving money or other things to convert people is wrong... Christ never did that... infact at the time of his death, there were barely any followers...
talking about going to hell even the puranas say that.... check Vaman Puran 3:3 "Sukeshi asked the sages about the sinful deeds, which leads to hell. The sages replied- "People who condemn Veda, deities, Brahmins etc. go to hell. Those who don't believe in religious texts like Puraan etc. or those who cause obstacles in the accomplishment of Yagya or those who prevent a charitable man from giving donation also go to hell". Now what do u say???

Dear Religious Scholar, I accept your comment - 100%. It cannot be more true. Real Christians are people who exhibit Christ in their lives. It is unfortunate that there is a misconception about the term "Chrisitians"

Yes, that is the difference. It does'nt say that those who do not believe in Sanatana Dharma will not go to heaven.It only says that people who condemn Veda....... do not belive in religious texes like..... and cause obstacles. NO where it mentioned that the heaven is reserved only for the belivers of Sanatana Dharam.
