"Oh, brother! So the missionaries are supposed to ignore the suffering of the people they're surrounded by? Oh, my, he fed a poor person, let's go bash his skull in!"

Tell me brother - what about you poor christian brothers in Africa ? You know , all those people in Rwanda, Angola, Zimbabwe etc. ? Majority of them are passionate christians. They are worse off than even the poorest hindu untouchables in India. Why doesn't your christian god show any mercy for them ? Why dont you good christian brothers do something for them ? Why does your christian god hate his people in africa ?

dangus : ">> first of all they break indian laws <<

and the first Christians broke Roman laws. And the Jew-protecters broke Nazi laws. And the underground churches broke Soviet and Maoist laws."

Just like Al Qaeda broke US laws , you mean ?

There is a big difference between a free , democratic India and Nazi Germany or Marxist USSR. By hoping for people to break laws of India , you are advocating terrorism.

NYer - I thank you for your concern for the poor hindu untouchables of India , but I wonder whether you feel any empathy for your fellow christian brothers in Africa ? Poor folks are even worse off than Indian untoucables and are literally starving and rotting to death.....

Tell me , what has your christian god done for them ?

That remains to be seen. At the present time, the jury is still out.

Funny, I thought this thread was about Catholic seminaries in India. I'm sorry that your hatred of Christians is so pathological that you feel the need to turn it into a bash-fest.

if india thought so then mother teresa would have had her skull bashed instead of being respected and treated as a national hero. by the way feeding a poor person is a lot different from blackmailing a poor person to break with his roots for a bag of rice. serve in the name of christ instead of hindu bashing or hindu baiting.

and the first Christians broke Roman laws. And the Jew-protecters broke Nazi laws. And the underground churches broke Soviet and Maoist laws.

yeah right. india is no soviet union. it has religious freedom. wrong analogy there. see my first post on this thread. two out of the four south indian states are ruled by christians!!!! a christian catholic almost became the head of this country. india for a long time was a dhimmi state that went out of the way to please its jihadi population.

i have been to india and it has more spirituality and tolerance than most places in this country.

as i said, i see no difference between jihadi / wahhabi lies and the lies thrown around by hindu bashers. check out the poster in question flying a portugese flag and abusing his country just because he couldnt get a jahwb.

Never said I was the jury, mate. History will tell the tale.

And whether you believe it or not, you will face judgment before Almighty God--as will we all.

BTW, the next time I go onto a Hindu thread to bash Hindu beliefs will be the first time. Too bad the same can't be said about you and Christian threads.

Its not hatred , just a simple principle I learnt as a kid , called "tit for tat" or "do unto others as they do to you". If you slap me , I will slap back. If you abuse me or my faith or whatever, you will get the same in return , with interest.

There are dozens of Christian Professionals who have experienced discrimination in the Corporate World in various parts of India for a number of years and have later decided to migrate to countries in the West.

A lot of hindus have migrated to the west too. So using your logic we will have to conclude that the corporate world in india discriminates against them too!!

Imagine calling me a Hindu Baiter. Just because they resent the Portuguese Flag. All I have to say is show me the proof that I am a Hindu Baiter.

Please keep posting. That is proof enough.

This post reeks with the stench of caste arrogance. As with liberals in this country, I get the impression that some of the upper-caste Indians just assume that the poor and low caste are too stupid and grasping (by nature?) to resist the evil Christians and their "bribes" of food and money.

But hey, I understand. Your social standing in India might be adversely affected if 200 million "untouchables" suddenly cast off a cultural system which has oppressed them for hundreds of years and embraced Christianity--which teaches, dangerously, that all men and women are equal in the sight of God--and indeed teaches that the pariah will enter Heaven while the Brahman will most likely go straight to hell. (See the parable of the rich man and Lazarus).

Dangerous, very dangerous.

Are you sure everybody is equal in christianity ? Tell that to the hundreds of millions of christians in Africa , who are rotting and starving to death. I am sure they will be pleased. They should feel privileged at being part of such a great faith. Never mind most of them have skeleton protruding out of their skins and die before they turn 25 , atleast they will reach heaven after they die , because in eyes of the almighty christian god , they are all sexy , beautiful , equal or whatever.
