If you put your faith before your country , if you see yourself as part of some global x'tian ummah , like the muslims , dont expect to find much sympathy for you from the Indian people.

clearly there are gold diggers here who see profit in using christ's name. i am sure most of your country-men who are 'true' christians are also patriots.

comparing christianity to islam is unfair. please remember the internet allows islamic trolls to post here abusing hindus in the name of christ.

Interesting. Government first, then faith. This, in a country where where 60 per cent of the world's leprosy patients live. The Government of Gujarat has stopped the services of the Catholic Sisters who were administering and providing medical services to the Narol Leprosy Hospital. Yes, what a wonderful country where one out of 6 Indians is branded as impure, from the moment of birth.

The christian places God first, then country. There are two great commandments:

Jesus said the greatest and the first commandment is:

‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind’.

And the second is like it:

‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself’.

Mother Teresa followed these commandments. 50 years ago, she found a woman "half eaten by maggots and rats" lying in front of a Calcutta hospital. The diminutive Roman Catholic nun sat with the woman until she died. Soon after, she began a campaign for a shelter for people to die with dignity. In an abandoned temple to the Hindu goddess Kali, Mother Teresa founded the Kalighat Home for the Dying.

What do your Hindu gods say about caring for the sick, poor and dieing?

Why? Because you no longer believe Mother Cow gave birth to your ancestors?

This sounds like a "real Indians can only be Hindu" type of argument.

Of course Christians are part of a global brotherhood. That has absolutely nothing to do with their nationality.
