Namaste,
Attached below is a
link to a Christian Magazine called Charisma. Please read the
article about the progress Christianity has made in India in the recent
years - starts on page 26 (God's Moment for India). This is a must read
article that summarizes the astonishing progress made by missionaries
within the last decade. This article claims that Orissa is now 28%
Christian. You should also read the article on page 6 ("They Burn Bibles
in India"). There are several reasons for this astronomical success; the
key reasons are the following.
1. The caste system
practiced in India (and the inhuman treatment of dalits and other poorer
segments of the population in some corners of the country - a
country where Lord Krishna Himself once walked).
2. Money -
Billions of dollars are entering the Indian society for conversion
purposes. This money flow has transformed the missionary work into a
homegrown movement. Read about local missionaries highlighted in the
article. Evangelizing is now a well-oiled machine in India helped by
corrupt politicians and media.
3. Support of
political leadership (Mrs. Sonia Gandhi and her family along with her
political subordinates)
4. Commitment of
foreign missionaries to bring India to Jesus
5. Violent approach
taken by many Indian groups to confront the attack on their heritage. This
is not only against Dharma tradition; it only helps missionaries to
raise more money by using any violent incident as a marketing
tool.
6. Clinging to
Manu Smriti (caste system and degrading treatment of sections of
the society) and refusing to become a proselytizing religion.
At this rate the
Hindu faith will become a minority faith inside India within the next
few decades (it is a simple diffusion process).
