I would definitely say the second source would certainly not be biased against Catholicism! But the first source seems to be the primary source; consider, for instance, how the article deals with St. Francis Xavier: one would get the idea he was calling for Jihad against the Hindus, when really what he was trying to do was establish what issues might complicate a return of the Malabarese to full communion with the Catholic Church!!!
It's "Lonely Planet" which I believe is the dominant source, and the one which provides for the basic tone of the article... Turns out that Lonely Planet was a BBC (ugh!) TV series; although Streatfeidl's only other book was Siberia, the series did journey to manu other destinations: Paris, Beijing, Thailand, Uzbekistan, Papua New Guineas, Hawaii, and South Africa, as well as other regional guides (Central Asia, US cities, Western Europe, etc.)
Despite being a spinoff of a BBC (ugh!) TV series, I don't know its inherently hateful, but I am suspicious that a Siberian expert with no other writing history is sent to a place experiencing a Marxist revolution, during the midst of anti-Christian pogroms; and then of the fact that whoever write the Wikipedia article thought this little snippet was essentially all he needed to know about Goa.
Perhaps.
I did notice however, the issue is pretty sensitive in Jewish circles.
Most Jews in India have left for Israel since that country was established (however they retain their ties with India, and many still speak Indian tongues in Israel, and come to visit friends they left behind in India).
So, I have very little Indian Jewish sources to quote from.
The links and excerpts I posted earlier were from Jewish sources, mostly based in the US and/ or Israel.
