Do they really need the government to hold their hands like that? Are they not capable of deciding that if what they hear sounds like truth, they may do as they with, convert or not? Seriously, it sounds like the gov't is saying, "sure, go listen, but if you convert because of what they say, then it's illegal." That just strikes me as paranoid.
That argument should work both ways isnt it? If they dont need the government to hold their hands then they also dont need to Missionaries to hold their hands like that. BTW is dont think the government's role would be to hold people's hands as regarding matters of religion and spirituality. Their (government's) business is to see that the foreign Missionaries, mullahs, imams and maulavis keep their hands off. This law is necessary and it would appear as a paranoia to only those whose business of mass conversion through fraud is directly threatened. Conversion is about hatred and intolerance and is not a secular activity that the government should allow to continue unchecked.
That is not in line with what was said earlier. The whole thing about it being illegal if someone converts from listening to a missionary, etc. If simply listening to a missionary causes someone to convert, what business is it of the government?
