The Vatican Archives about Hindu

T his post has nothing to do with Pope laying down his resignation. But it has only triggered me to look into 'matters' inside Vatican. Just out of curiosity I started to visit their official website and started searching for 'Hindu' and 'India'. Not a surprise to me that I found records of 1886 and older.  Some of the recordings of history of Christian push in India of those times, are painful to read, from the perspective of 'conversion' and that too a planned one leaving no stones unturned. How they worked with various christian groups to play with innocent minds of Hindus and slowly convert them without creating any suspicion in the minds of neither the public nor the authorities.  India was not their only target. Wherever they perceived gullible people they ruthlessly invaded with their religion, at even costing their lives. I wonder sometimes, why the eff would Jesus have ever preached such enforced conversion of humans to believe him?  Ther...

National Debate on Conversion

LK Advani has called for a national debate on religious conversion (25 Sept.) "A free and honest democratic debate on the issue of religious conversions is the need of the hour." BJP has suggested this many times in the past but only once after Babri Masjid was demolished a all religion meet was organised. But it failed to come to any understanding. Why? Obviously the political thugs poking their noses into the affairs of faith will ruin the atmosphere. Now the Imams and Priests must come forward and have a national debate. None of the directly or indirectly connected ministers should participate in the meet. There must be ABSOLUTELY NO intervention of any political party or government in the meeting. Let the purely religious heads discuss and take a stand and let the government then decide how to make it work. More than just an outcome of the meet, there must be a DECISIVE CHAPTER written by all the religions participating and signed by the leaders. Let a whole week be all...

Evangelists in Orissa: Converting against all odds

Orissa: VHP turns violent and burns Churches. Hmm! ok. There is a history to Orissa-Christianity-Tribals. "The VHP launched its violent onslaught claiming it wants to stop conversions to Christianity, accusing Churches of proselytising." - AsiaNews.IT (Fact file of conversions happening since 200 years among Tribals of Orissa is given below) So they mean there were no conversion attempts? Is it a false claim by VHP? They DO NOT Convert Hindus and Tribals to Christianity? What other agenda do their missionaries have? On Christmas Day it (VHP) celebrated for instance the “return” (barbaratan or ‘coming home’) to Hinduism of 82 families or 187 Christians, 103 men and 84 women, at a ceremony in the village of Chikita in Sundergarth District (Orissa) that included receiving images of Hindu divinities. 82 families or 187 Christians were Hindus earlier! They accept that fact don't they? Now the same converts are willingly coming back to Hindu fold. Why? Why couldn't they hav...

Luring a Hindu to be a Christian.....use your logic from this..

I would love to comment against most of the points mentioned below (excerpts from Page .) But I will keep it to later time. I consider this is definitely an interesting information for all intellectuals. Please read on... - "Christianity should be considered for its historical viability. Christianity has historically rooted characters and events within its schema which are identifiable through forensic sciences like archeology and textual criticism. Hinduism certainly has a history, but its theology, mythology, and history are so often blurred together that it becomes difficult to identify where one stops and the other begins." "Hinduism has a certain flexibility and adaptability through its historical ambiguity. But, where a religion is not historical, it is that much less testable. It may not be falsifiable at that point, but neither is it verifiable." "If Adam and Eve did not exist, if Israel did not have an exodus out of Egypt, if Jonah was just an allegory...
