On January 16, 2019, 130 acres of rural North Carolina land near Raleigh were purchased by Carolina Murugan Temple (CMT). A month prior, their plans to build the largest Hindu statue in North America were approved by the county. Under construction now, CMT plans to build a 155-foot-tall statue, which will sit on a 35-foot pedestal. It will be taller than the Statue of Liberty, which stands at 151 feet, not including the pedestal. This new development is a continuation of the Hindu acculturation in North Carolina; in October of 2022, the Sri Venkateswara Temple in Cary unveiled its 87-foot Tower of Unity and Prosperity at a ceremony attended by then North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper.
Along with new temples and 190-foot idols, tracts of land in rural North Carolina areas are also being bought up by Indian companies with the intention of building Hindu communities. One such company, Sustaino LLC., has purchased nearly 400 acres of land across the state. One of their current projects, Vedic Village, is set to include an on-site yoga studio and Hindu temple. The structure of the community is all self-contained, essentially a commune in nature. While their website claims, for legal reasons, that they do not restrict residency based on race or beliefs, the very nature of the community says otherwise.
Further down south, in Texas, a similar development has faced significant criticism. The Meadow, formerly known as EPIC City, is a 402-acre site on the outskirts of Josephine, Texas. Similar to the Hindu-centric Vedic Village, The Meadow’s community plans include homes, a mosque, a religious school, a senior living center, as well as retail spaces. While the inner workings of The Meadow are not as commune-esque as those of proposed Hindu communities, the objective is the same in both cases: to create an isolated community in which these anti-Christian religions can thrive and grow.
The pushback in Texas has been strong—from locals who opposed the development at a town meeting all the way up to Governor Greg Abbott launching investigations into Community Capital Partners, the backer of the development. There appears to be little to no backlash at this increasing Hindu colonization in North Carolina, perhaps due to a lack of press coverage on these developments, although some have spoken out about the new idol statue that is in the works.
The locals who are pushing back against a Muslim city in Texas are getting raked over the coals for “Islamophobia.” Some reports denounce North Carolinian pushback to the 190-foot-tall statue of the false god Murugan as “Hinduphobic.” Are the rejection of false religions and the fear of the colonization of rural America irrational, as the suffix “phobia” suggests? No. Rather, it is the rational response to growing demonic influence in American culture. We see the atrocities being committed in the United Kingdom by Muslim majority migrant groups; we do not want that here.
John Adams said in a letter to the Massachusetts militia, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” The moral framework upon which America was founded, upon which the Constitution rests, is that of Christianity. Our system of government is incapable of functioning without this framework, as we see so clearly in the current collapse of our country in response to the growth of secular humanism. Muslims will inevitably submit to Sharia, not the Constitution or Bill of Rights. The polytheistic pagan worship of Hinduism is so contrary to a Christian understanding of the human person and the Western philosophical tradition upon which our nation was founded that it can in no way be compatible with our system of law.
To give credit where credit is due, I respect the audacity of these groups and religious organizations for taking the initiative to build communities for their followers. They at least know the truth that to expand and grow as a faith, they must join together; their strength is in their numbers. While Muslims and Hindus continue to build isolated communities, mosques, temples, and more, the leaders of American Catholics are preoccupied with climate change and synodality. Attacks on the Tridentine Mass, such as those in the Diocese of Charlotte, serve only to further isolate faithful Catholics and prevent the growth of parish communities.
While our backs are turned in our preoccupation with hand-wringing about the virtues of ecumenism, enemies of the Faith are busy taking over. The internal persecution of traditional Catholics is currently weakening the global church—and it will only continue to do so. Ecumenism without conversion is an empty gesture; it does as much good as giving cash to a drug addict.
American Catholics and Christians must firmly oppose the ideological takeover of our country, whether from secular humanists, Muslims, Hindus, or any other false belief system. We need to work together to strengthen our parish communities and work outward to effect real change in our neighborhoods. Christ said the world will know us by our love, not by our passivity. It is time the faithful start pushing back.

Hindus are taking over the part of Texas I am in.
Vivek Ramaswamy as future governor of Ohio wants to increase the population from 11 plus million to 15 million, a near 30% increase. Where do you think those people are going to come from? Trump needs to end this endorsement NOW. He should have endorsed Dave Yost, the real conservative.
If we wait for the politicians to stop this, they won’t, and it will just get worse and worse.
Just outside Raleigh is one of the fastest growing cities in the USA. Its name is Cary, and the locals always joked that it stands for “Containment Area for Relocated Yankees” as the job growth in nearby Research Triangle Park has skyrocketed bring many new people to the area.
Now they joke that the “Y” in Cary has been changed to an “I.” It’s the “Containment Area for Relocated Indians.”
The Hindus can call there High School teams “The Fighting Dots”.
Cricket will replace Football.
“Muslims Take Over Texas”
Yeah?
So how come Muslims/Democrats are losing all big state wide elections?
About the photo of the temple.
An Ancient Aliens had a surprising story about the mystical shape of a key appearing frequently.
“Season 16, Episode 3, titled “The Galactic Keyhole,” which explores the universal symbol of the keyhole in sacred sites and art.”
It said, correctly, that we say the Vatican has the large gathering area, the Vatican Square, but anyone can see it is really a key.
Now this new Hindu one is a key shape, too.
So what?
There is freedom of religion in the USA and in India. India has a number of Christian Churchs, so why not Hindu temples?
Murugan originated as a Tamil hill deity - probably a hero cult, and was then asyncretized with 3rd century AD gods to form the current version of Murugan. He’s not originally a Hindu god
well, the St. Peter’s version is as the Keys were handed to St. Peter
“So what?”
The epitath of the retard Boomer.
The response to the invasion and occupation by non-Whites and non-Christians.
On what basis do you say that India should allow Christians in India to build Churches and yet you say that Hindus, born in the USA, can’t build temples?
Forget Pagan Temples, they are invaders and they all need to GO BACK !
