THROW OFF THOSE BLINKERS AND LOOK AT REALITY.

Despite mouthing homilies like God is one and all roads lead to the same destination, the conversion business is thriving. After all, all Gods are equal but some Gods are more equal than others! Especially those who need conversions to survive.

The Christian God is a jealous God (Exodus 20:5; Deuteronomy 4:24)whilst the Prophet(PBUH) of Arabia asserted that there is no God but Allah. We hear it over loudspeakers five times a day blaring from every mosque in order to appease the second majority .

Being new religions as compared to Hinduism or Judaism, both these faiths HAD TO convert others to their faith or they could not increase in numbers and unless you have sizable numbers you don't have political power and survive as a community. That’s why we are all stymied by vote-bank politics in India. Look at the Parsees and Zoroastrianism-almost at vanishing point. The Greek religion, pre-Islamic Egypt, all gone. Similarly, if Hindus vanish so will Hinduism. The only Hindu Rashtra Nepal has ceased to exist having fallen prey to another predatory ism-Marxism. And if the traditionally meek Hindus refuse to vanish they are called hostile against their aggressors even though conversion is anathema to pluralism or a multicultural society as the status quo is disturbed even as Hindus dwindle in numbers while others grow at their cost. This way one day we will end up like Muslim majority Kashmir or Pakistan earlier where secularism and pluralism, by which the minorities or elitists are now swearing, are the first casualties with the Hindus on the run from their oppressors.

Minority aggression surfaces due to State support against protesting Hindus who unfortunately vote as a disparate group and the myopic "secular" politician fully exploits it. The practice of “secularism” in India is an elitist concept which is practiced by those whose value systems are dictated by standards of the West in order to be counted amongst the “progressive” and ”forward” looking. Due to peer pressure, very few can resist what is the fashion of the day as our TV induced degeneration, in all walks of life clearly shows. Today, “secularism” seems to have become almost mandatory. All those who are pontificating about the VHP and Bajrang Dal being “terrorist” are usually sitting in front of English channel TVs or reading English newspapers and swallowing drivel with their own intelligence shut off. They will not take the trouble to verify the facts with someone who is a native of the areas where these skirmishes are taking place or even look at non-English sources of information. The TV hostess increases the hype with a shrill voice and keeps a poll chart on her side to trick the less intelligent viewer into falling into the trap of voting along her line of argument unless the poll itself is rigged to begin with. These busy bodies being elitists move around in sophisticated circles where a lot of foreign interests are involved like the diplomatic corps that being pleased with the services being rendered would invite them to their countries and pile lavish gifts on them before they return.

Indian films highlighting India’s poverty usually get their directors awards at international film festivals. This toadying to the white-skinned West at all times including allowing the country to be led by such a one today by India’s oldest political party is an old weakness of Indians as a result of 1000 years of slavery. It was Swami Vivekananda who had stated in his speeches and recorded in his Complete Works that “A Hindu converted is not only a Hindu less but an enemy more.” If the so-called minorities do not provide the provocation through their anti-Indian activities the VHP/Bajrang Dal will not have any cause for protests. Like without Godhra there would have been no Gujarat riots. By banning them today they will merely adopt another name tomorrow and carry on in a seamless manner as it is these dedicated souls who are out to protect Hindu society that is under siege and not organizations with various names. Let us now look at the progress report of the Christian Church:

With a historic map marking Vasco da Gama's route to India adorning the backdrop, Pope John Paul II, on a three-day visit to India, held a special function with the bishops of the Asian Synod "to seal the fruits of the Synod which was celebrated in Rome" in May 1998. He signed the document "Ecclesia in Asia", which will serve as a blueprint for the activities of the Roman Catholic Church in the region for the new millennium. It is quite interesting to know that this Pope has been called God’s Politician and there is also a book by that name.

The map in the backdrop only underlined what the Pope proclaimed in the 140 page document in a language which leaves no scope for any interpretation:

"Just as in the first millennium the Cross was planted in the soil of Europe and in the second in that of the Americas and Africa, we can pray that in the third Christian millennium a great harvest of faith will be reaped in this vast and vital continent" ie, Asia which includes India. Evangelization had to be "an absolute priority" for the church in Asia, the Pope said, and the Synod was "an ardent affirmation of faith" in Jesus and remained a "call to conversion".

"In presenting the fruits of the Synod's work...you, the bishops, are being asked to make ever greater efforts to spread the gospel of salvation through the length and breadth of the human geography of Asia", the Pope said.

The Christian clergy promised them ‘everything under the sun’ when they were allured to embrace Jesus as their only savior. In their enthusiasm to harvest souls and show increase in numbers, the cunning Christian priests assured the indigent non-Christian population not only economic prosperity but also equal status as human beings ‘unlike in Hinduism’. But in practice, all promises and assurances turned out to be a big hoax. As a resut, this year’s Holy Week (March 16 to 22), the week that precedes Easter Sunday, was observed as “untouchability protest week” in several parts of northern Tamil Nadu. This was in response to a call given by the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) and the Dalit Christians’Liberation Movement to highlight the plight of converted Dalits in the Christian community. At least 10 churches in Cuddalore and Villupuram districts had to go without or curtail the ceremonies that usually begin with Palm Sunday, celebrated in commemoration of the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. In some places Dalits hoisted black flags atop churches and in a few others they locked up the places of worship. Demanding justice to Dalit Christians (sic), VCK general secretary Thol. Thirumavalavan led a demonstration on March 19 near the Bishop’s House. The immediate provocation was violence against Dalits by “upper caste” Christians (sic) at Eraiyur in Villupuram district on March 9. Vanniar Christians (upper caste Christians) carrying sticks, poles, iron rods, and stones.

The right of holding slaves is clearly established in the Holy Scriptures, both by precept and example," Rev. R. Furman, D.D., a Baptist pastor from South Carolina.

The Christian church's main justification of the concept of slavery was based on the "curse of Ham" which appears in the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) in Genesis 9:25-27.

"Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers. He also said, 'Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem.’”

Christians believed that Canaan had settled in Africa and India and that his descendants had become black. Slavery is still advocated in North America by some Reconstructionist Christians and a few Christian Identity movements. At its heart, American slavery was a brutal system based upon physical force, threats, torture, sexual exploitation, and intimidation. Any black resisting overtly the orders of a slaveholder, or almost any white in the community, could expect immediate and often brutal retaliation. Few laws prevented slaveholders from doing whatever they wanted with their human property. Accepted methods of punishment for slaves included verbal rebukes, a few "cuts" with a stick or riding whip, kicks to the body, boxing of ears, confinement in corn cribs or tool sheds, branding on the flesh of the hand or head with a hot iron applied for 20 seconds like cattle in an American ranch and mutilation of the body by clipping the ears, breaking legs, severing fingers, and slitting tongues.

Not much different as to what our Secular Fundamentalists would like to do to those of us who did not fall in line with their line of thinking, even in this 21st Century?
