You only view conversion as a vice. What about the politician who is accepting money and selling the nation? What about VHP and Bajrang Dal who take money and vitiate the national harmony? So if foreign funding is doing more harm than good, then who is supposed to take action against it? Just because my party will get Rs.100 crore from abroad, let me allow Rs.1000 crore that will harm our nation. You only quote a pastor but do you know how much BJP and congress earn thru this foreign funding and they dont allow any audit of their accounts.
And who says hindus are not converting? I have been to Mata Amritanandmayi Devi's center in Kerala and found many foreigners as her bhakta. ISCKON has converted many to Krishna Bhakti worldwide and so many Gurus and religious leaders are doing it every where.
And lastly I am most upset with your last sentence. Caste hindus have kept the SCs at fringes for thousands of years and now they dare call them to be fence sitters. It also reflects how little you know about them. If they had to leave their religion, they could have done it long ago under muslim rules and christian missionaries. Then we still practiced untouchability and they did not have any Ambedkar or reservation. I think they are more deep rooted to this soil than anyone else. They are so attached to their village or community deity than any brahmin to a temple. They may not be allowed entry in a temple but their faith for the deity is intact. Your assessment is based on their maltreatment within hinduism but perhaps you dont realize that their faith is more deep rooted in the religion of their soil which is now considered part of hinduism.
I can understand what you meant.
But Madam this is a changed world ,corrupt politicians have their own limitations.Economic benefit is the only important thing in this world.Politicians wont change the mind of the people from grass root level .But religion can do that .And people will do anything for money in this globalized world be it SC/ST or higher caste.
The real problem will arise when outside players manipulate the religious sentiments for their own purposes.
Sudan is an example .It is now divided because of the religious issue.US used Christian religion for their own purpose and oil.
Perhaps you know Saudi manipulation in other Muslim nations .It is not their govt policy but the people in there will
use for its own purpose.
During previous centuries our social set up was different where King can.block any of these problems.But now we have a democracy.
VHP was formed due to the so called soft policy of RSS and BJP.It was Congress failure like Shah Bano case caused the rise of Dal like hard wings.
Hindus still have their rational thinking that is why these fringe groups cant root deeply among majorities.
This is reality madam.Evangelists only cares about their benefits.Even I got a evangelist notice for pray in the front of my temple. This is a Corparate.business .I dont have any problem even if all of them get privileges .But only after the total rational and educational upliftment .
In fact a member already pointed here that converts still use their reservation by using Hindu names.
Abrahamic religion can be easily manipulated by foreign vested interests
if Indians are poor and illiterate .Otherwise it wont be a problem.
ISKON activities are nothing in the front of Christian groups.And they are developed nations with educated people.
Entire humans are bhakts of Amrithananda Mayi .Religious is not a problem in there.Christian family in my neighbourhood got some free medical services from Math.But still they are following Christianity.
..... don't talk rubbish.
