UN-CONSTITUTIONAL By: Disgusted Citizen | Monday , 13 Oct '08 20:28:07 PM Reply | Forward i cannot believe this excuse of a governing head to even take up the issue of violence vs. non-violence. Does he know what the constitution is? And if he's so adamant about pointing it all to 'forced conversions'.. the only ones that we know about are the ones who get thier head shaved, made to eat cow dung and drink urine for 'purification' and all this is done under threat of fear and intimidation. How can this be contested? How can the people vote to install such a leader? To the christians it's all known because that's how Christ was crucified in the first place to know things as they are. This report today in another newspaper about one family has been fined 501 rupees , even after re-converting to hinduism in orissa just because they said things as they were. I mean, are we that blind?
cause of christains attack is the publications of new life By: indian | Monday , 13 Oct '08 20:17:33 PM Reply | Forward Yes, the publication of the worst wordings on Hindu gods by New Life is the root cause for attacks on churches. I think it is not the work of Bharangadal. It must be the work of UPA/Congress to create tension and put the blame on bjp and then to earn the sympathy of the christians ! It will boomerang for this partt . It is just a few months more and the verdict of the Indians will show what is the true picture of Hindus.
If an organization writes fight back with pen not with fireBy: Kani | Tuesday , 14 Oct '08 8:36:34 AM Reply | Forward How shallow and easy is an argument to say that some one wrote something about Hindu Gods and then Hindus are taking the swords. If it is against the Gods then let them punish people if they are real God. I was born from a Hindu family and we choose to be Christians because of what Christ has done to give me salvation. Hinduism said I am untouchable because I was born in that family, I didn't choose, the God's didn't choose, the selfish bloodthirsty mob of some Hindus choose my caste. Who asked them? Thank God I am free from that slavery.
Yeah its right....fight with pen but not in abussive manner...By: VINAY | Tuesday , 14 Oct '08 9:54:12 AM Reply | Forward Dear Kani,The language used by u is itself provocative. U left hinduism for christ for the trouble best known to u then why not u are leaving India because u are not feeling safe here too. If there is any problem solve and not leave and then abuse..... I hope better sense shall prevail on you before u pickup ur pen to write anything...
Minority IssueBy: Ramesh | Monday , 13 Oct '08 20:10:56 PM Reply | Forward Conversion is not advocated by established churches of india, as we knows they are some new churches under the patronage of congress and other parties like CPM who always like to taste these groups votes to grab power. After 60 years of independance we need to re-think on right of citizens in india, why can't we all have same right and prevelages. These new churches and supporting minority politics are the major cause for this troubles and BJP is in right direction in their stand.
reply to RameshBy: Nagarajan | Tuesday , 14 Oct '08 9:02:53 AM Reply | Forward Subject to Ramesh,as you stated on your minority issue, you word seems to be bull shirt and rediculas manner. We are indian how can you make people deffirent in religions. people have rights to follow their own gods. This is up to belife in thier god. you see in America and france we have big kali koeil and other temple but we have rights to celebarte our festival even local people could participate on all the events. Also Local govt give us all necessary security for entire celebration as well. we feel to be in aboard rather then India. If any one converts people to christian, govt should take proper action on particular mission or churches, not killing innocent people they are India. you keep it in mind you try to avoid to write a such stupit things which can be a problem in your states.
Center's double standardsBy: Seema | Monday , 13 Oct '08 20:03:51 PM Reply | Forward I agree with the Chief Minister. It is a vendetta politics by the autocratic govt. in the center. Such cheap and degrading text about Hindu Gods is being distributed and center is not banning it. But if Rushdie publishes something it is banned even before it is printed. Double standards.
Action speak louder than wordsBy: reji | Monday , 13 Oct '08 21:33:10 PM Reply | Forward Dear Seema the day you or any hindu organisation like VHP, Bajrang Dal go out and serve the poorest of the poor, clean the lepers,take care of the ill and old giving them dignity of life as missionaries of charity do on the streets of calcutta which they have been doing for the last 50-60years.it will speak for hinduism more than anything else
Secularism and CitizenBy: Vinod Kumar | Monday , 13 Oct '08 18:52:32 PM Reply | Forward It is call of the time to defice "secularism" does it mean freedom of religion or Free of religion. And if it freedom of religion - then start treating first as a citizen of country whether hindu,muslim or christain. Every citizen is having a equal right in India and so called foreign head of particular religion be allowed to speak directly againt the rule of state and central govt is supposed to react as a head of the country. If prime minister of country says SHAME, he is supposed to act to control the situation not to just speak like a ordinary man.
Be sincereBy: GG | Monday , 13 Oct '08 18:27:43 PM Reply | Forward Hello Mohan Daddikar,You have no right to comment on what Pope has missed to say. Show ur concern towards humanity. People like you open mouth only to blame others.
VERY NAIVE CHIEF MINISTERBy: Joseph Gonsalves | Monday , 13 Oct '08 18:10:40 PM Reply | Forward Very naïve Chief Minister ever we had in Karnataka state. Immediately when BJP coming to power he realizes Christians are behind unrest/communal violence in Karnataka??? Ridiculous, he can’t blame BJDL, RSS, VHP and Rama Sene. He dares to raise voice against them who may lose as Chief Minister. “Jab geedad ki mouth aathi hai who shehar ke tharaf baag thi hai.” To cover his mistakes he is blaming terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir and infiltration of Bangladeshis. But he has no voice against those infiltrate from Nepal, Burma (Myanmar) and Sri Lankan without visas. Nobody raises voice against them. Probably after few years we have to say Jai Buddhist instead of Jai Hind. (Lot of conversions from Hindus to Buddhism)
Karnataka CM is rightBy: Rajaram | Monday , 13 Oct '08 18:06:47 PM Reply | Forward Karnataka CM is right. Actually there were no attacks. No one was injured. Just some stones were thrown on churches. Even if they are called attacks, I wonder why no one is looking at the cause! Shame that the media are also involved in sending out the wrong news to the public. Christian missionaries are long known to converting innocents, but under Sonia Gandhi regime it has increased like wildfire. Innocent hindus are deceived by the missionaries that they will get rich in two years if they convert to Christianity. This is the cause of so called attacks. It was very mild.
Sonia is not XtianBy: Ramdas Naik | Monday , 13 Oct '08 22:04:26 PM Reply | Forward After marrying Rajiv gandhi sonia gandhi became a Hindu.
GOD'S LOVEBy: GOD'S MESSENGERS | Monday , 13 Oct '08 18:00:23 PM Reply | Forward We are truely in the last days. As the Bile says we are in the end of ages.Many people do not know the only Book that speaks teh Truth. Many people are blind and they are friutrated and seek God. Thats why God sends prophets and evangelist to the poor people so that they will know the Truth. But instead of asking them and seeking the Truth they want to kill them. To follow Jesus Christ is unique by itself. Jesus said I will build my church upon this rock. And the rock is Jesus Christ. It speaks about strong Faith in Him. Those who throw stones at the hindus and hurt them are not Chrisitans. And please remember Mao's are not Christian. Christ taught us to forgive and be compassionate. Christ teachings are above non-violence. Its about blessing our enemies. Loving our enemies. Its all about God's love. Love covers every sin. We are all sinners. But when Christ comes in our lives we are transformed. Our heart is transforemd. Conversions are all false, and temporary. God Bless.
New found CM of KarntakaBy: P Johnson | Monday , 13 Oct '08 17:59:57 PM Reply | Forward For Karnataka CM to know, the Christian organisations have not done anything new or liiegal after you became CM. They were there doing what is right and with in the law of the land. It is you and your rowdies who found the courage to break the law once you became the CM. But understand, India is a big country and we have not totaly lost our sense. For the time being you might have an upperhand just being the ruling party in the state who are only used to manipulate the system following Gujrat. Try continue doing this, you will see you are hand cuffed one day.
No?By: g kapuria | Monday , 13 Oct '08 21:30:07 PM Reply | Forward In other words, Yeddyurappa is the first one to call a spade a spade.
