I get the gist of what you are trying to establish, but the NLFT does have Christianity as part of its agenda. The ethnicity is Khaasi. The violence is of Christian Khaasis upon tribal Khaasis. Their constitution clearly specifies Christianity as its driving agenda.
The LTTE is not a religious organization, and had prominent Catholics like Anton Balasingham as one of its chief strategists.
As for Jindal “toileting” something for Catholicism, I doubt he’s ever read the Gita. In America, it has become a silly popularity contest to proclaim religion for any position of power. Politicians like Thomas Jefferson wouldn’t have a chance in today’s politics. Too much of the idiot masses has been empowered with the right to vote, in opposition to what was the norm at the time of the Founding Fathers- only a privileged minority exercised the power to decide.
That said, George Santayana, to borrow the delicacy of words Steelfish is an expert in utilizing, “toileted” his Catholic faith for Atheism.
1. Rather than reading Gita, give the Gospel of St. Luke a try!
In this, you will see real people being described, real witnesses, specific events being detailed, descriptions, and eye-witness accounts. You will find people such as the closest disciples of Christ in a state of fear and dismay after his crucifixtion go into hiding. Yet three days later they actually ate with the risen Christ (not some apparition) and went onto preach the good news to the pagans at the time (the Gita crowd), many of them were converted, and all except for St. John were martyred. It was on the blood of martyrs the Church flourished.
For more than two millenia thereafter some of the most brilliant and searching minds on this planet have examined this revelation that has mushroomed to all corners of the globe. Countless departments of higher education, theologians, scholars and historians of every color and stripe have examined the synoptic Gospels and the Catholic Credo.
Innumerable magazines, reviews, books, treatises, journals, and articles to this day continue to examine this revealed Truth. Conversions have occurred by the galore from the very learned (GK Chesterton) as have miracles of faith. Be informed this is not the stuff of some obscure Gita tracts.
2. As Cronos so well points out, the specific targeting of Catholics, Christians, and Sikhs for butchering by Hindus is somehow downplayed by you to shifting this genocidal and barbaric criminality to the NLFT and you try to compare this to the LTTE. The LTTE is no different than the Basque Terrorists, a well organized militia, well financed by expatriates, suicide bombings, and in control of fairly well defined geographical enclaves.
To try and compare a rag-tag band like the NLFT to these groups is more than absurd, it is flatly untrue. To use this as a cover to expunge Hindu atrocities only helps validate the sheer illiteracy of the Hindu masses and their firebrand swamis who feel that exposure to the synoptic Gospels will reveal the fraud of the myths in the Gita and the pantheon of Hindu deities -including gods incarnated as monkeys, elephants, baboons, lions, and reptiles and in the end spell the doom of their parasitic temple livelihood.
You even tried lamely to equate a garden variety type isolated act of theater vandalism following screening of the Da Vinci Code to arson. But the mass slaughtering of Sikhs and the torching of their properties by rampaging mobs of Hindus is explained away as incitement by governmental machinations.
Such is the nature of the pathetic defenses you offer to assuage the vile acts of Hindus.
Finally about the use of the word “toileting” It needs bearing that the Christ Himself used colorful language such as “brood of vipers” to describe willful unbelievers in the face of revealed truth.
And as for comparing Santayana to Gov. Bobby Jindal, well I’ll let this comparison speak for itself.
