Re: Hundereds of Christians move to camps to avoid attacks by Hindu Extremists
Still, India is a secular country that nurtures the belief that freedom of relgion is essential...
For Christians, their bible tells them to spread the word of god, it part of their beliefs.. If you forbid them to prech their relgion, it impinging on their freedom of relgion.
So long as they do it politely and without openly being derogatory to other religions...
Still, my question is, why dont Hindus in India organize and beat the Christian Missionaries to the punch... Do what the Christians are doing and preach to those who are most likely to be converted, the virtues of the Hindu faith?
There are many western secular countries in the world where religious freedom are restricted depeding on their social situation. To eliminate the problems like these happening India need to do something affirmative, be it curteiling some religious freedom. There are many aspect of christianity and Islam other than aggressive preaching that could be practiced in India without anybody objecting. Is that a costly price to pay.
