Followers of Semitic religions are converting Hindus at a very large scale. Population of Bhaarat is increasing, but Hindu population is decreasing due to conversion and followers of non-Hindu religion are producing more children and due to illegal immigration from neighbouring country Bangla Desh. There is a lots of hue and cry when Ghar Vapsi program is conducted on a very, very small scale while almost 100 % non- Hindus living in Bhaarat are converted people from Hindu religion.
History is ' repeating itself '. During the period 1998 -'99, there were reports galore in the English media about attacks on Christians. The Vajpayee Govt. was then ruling at the Centre. ALL THE REPORTS WERE PROVED FALSE AFTER DUE INVESTIGATION!! Something similar is happening today.
WHEN CHRISTIANS CAME TO INDIA AFTER PERSECUTION IN THEIR PLACES OF BIRTH, IT IS THE HINDUS WHO WELCOMED THEM AND ACCEPTED THEM. TODAY, CHRISTIANS ARE THE MOST ADVANCED COMMUNITY IN INDIA, still claim minority status. AMBEDKAR TOLD DALITS NOT TO EMBRACE CHRISTIANITY OR ISLAM. IF YOU DO SO, YOU WILL BE DENATIONALISED. YOU WILL NOT BE AN INDIAN. YOU WILL BE A CHRISTIAN OR MUSLIM ONLY. CHRISTIANS MUST PROVE AMBEDKAR WRONG.

SHOULD NOT BOTH HOUSES CONDENM THE INVOLVEMENT OF VATICAN AND ITALIAN COUNSEL INTERFERING IN THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS OF INDIA?
ONLY SOLUTION IS TO PASS ANTI-CONVERSION ACT WHICH DOES NOT PREVENT INDVIDUAL/VOLUNTARY CONVERSION AS PER OUR CONSTITUTION.
WILL OUR SELF STYLED SECULARISTS WAKE UP? WHY THEY OPPOSE SUCH ACT? STRANGE ON ONE HAND THEY ARE CONDUCTING CONVERSIONS ON THE OTHER OPPOSE SUCH ACT. OR FOR THEM MAJORITY 'S SOULS ARE GAME FOR HARVESTING.
LET ALL OPPOSE THOSE TRAITORS WHO SPEAK AGAINST ONLY TRUE SECULARISTS. REMEMBER, HINDUS WOULD NO LONGER BEAR ASSAULTS ON THEM.
REAL ISSUE IS ' PRACTICE YOUR RELIGION, LET OTHERS DO THE SAME". DO NOT ABUSE OR ATTACK OTHER RELIGIONS.
SHRI ANSARI AND SMT MAHAJAN, PEOPLE OF INDIA HAVE GIVEN YOU HIGHEST HONOUR. TAKE IT UPON YOU TO MOVE IN THIS DIRECTION AND BRING RIGHT RESOLUTIONS IN BOTH HOUSES.
THOSE WHO CLAIM TO BE SECULAR LIKE JDU,SP,RJD, DMK,TMC, CPM,CPI AND MANY MORE SHOULD BE OUSTED FROM THE HOUSES BECAUSE IN THEIR QUEST FOR MUSLIM VOTES THEY FALSELY ABUSE HINDUS, AND GO STEP FURTHER BY DIVIDING IN CASTES, SUB CASTES ETC; BECAUSE THEY ACT AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION AND OATH OF OFFICE.

Subject: John Dayal's testimony to US House of Representatives
Following excerpt from John Dayal's testimony show his call for interference by the U.S. in India's internal matters including elections. Excerpt shows how he bases his call for interference by using atrocities literature compiled and summarized.
--------------------
Using atrocities literature as the motivation for action
These fears are compounded by increasing radicalization of the political discourse including rhetoric about disenfranchising religious minorities. I wish to bring to the attention of the honorable Members of Congress the realities of the situation of religious minorities on the ground in India. We have spoken of the anti-Sikh massacres, the Christian massacres in Orissa and the recent violence in Muzaffarnagar. But in the past 12 months preceding these elections, Christians have themselves faced 153 cases of violence against us. My colleague Vijayesh Lal, is one of the forces noticing, recording these cases. And this is just the proven cases.
The use of state, missionary and law enforcement apparatus to harass, intimidate and disenfranchise religious minorities, indulge in mass violence against minorities followed by the extension of impunity to the perpetrators of violence the Government of India itself, in Parliament, has acknowledged 30,000 cases of violence in the last 60 years on record. Most of these cases have seen no persecution of the perpetrators including the police and other forces that I have mentioned. This could increase many-fold.
Calling for direct influence to coerce India
I will take this opportunity therefore to urge the United States Government and the U.S. Congress and indeed all people of the world to engage in the dialogue with the Government of India on issues of human rights and freedom of faith. These rights are guaranteed under the Indian constitution but are violated with impunity all too often. India is a huge market and investment destination and this has so far successfully managed and encouraged the government to ignore or rebuff the scant concerns shown by the international community.
Calling for influencing Indian elections
I am not going to focus on the issues because my three co-panelists have focused on all of them. I am going to focus on what are the challenges India will face when elections portend to present a result which is prophesied in newspapers and television columns: what happens if Mr. Modi comes to power. I think we now in India face serious challenges to the secular and pluralistic traditions of a country and religious minorities such as Christians, Muslims, Sikhs, and Adivasis are generally fearful of what the future portends.

TRUTH MUST BE UPHELD

I read Mr Julio Ribeiro's 'I feel I am on a hit list'(Indian Express dated 16th March)I did not react immediately because I wanted to let it sink and see if there was any foundation in what he stated. To me who am 78 the whole accusation of his seems to have no foundation. As of Julio Ribeiro- my ancestry also can be traced to Hinduism. While he agrees on this the question arises why we are Christians today. How did it happen? What kind of inducement-allurement and what strategy of proselytization were used those days for my ancestors to become Christians? Unlike Julio Ribeiro I do not feel threatened-neither do I fear that I am on a hit list and I feel very much an Indian no matter who says what. The point to note is that the Catholic Church to which Julio Ribeiro and I belong has a parampara of a persecution mania. This is because we have inherited and are born through persecution. Not by the Hindus but by the Dutch, the Portuguese, the French and the English. This is precisely why though Julio Ribeiro acquiescence that his DNA if tested, it will not differ markedly from Mohan Bhagwat's. The same can be said of our Hindu ancestors. Then what happened down the line.
We must agree that there was persecution, forced conversion by the conquerors. It was a question of torture and death to which the Hindu ancestors were subjected to. This is not fairy tales but recorded history when thousands of temples were destroyed, houses were ransacked and people were brutalized Those who indulged in this human rights violations were treated as Saints by the Vatican and raised to Sainthood .But now we raise a hue and cry against 'ghar Vapsi' What was good for one is not good for another. It is not though these were in the hoary past. Even today most of the NGOs do indulge in this proselytization. I wish the government of India ban all foreign funds. If China could develop without such NGOs and the foreign funds why should India not?
I must bring the Vatican's mind set in this context because it is relevant .When it comes to conversion it will go the extra mile .Look at what it indulged in during the regime of PiusXII. He did not hesitate to join hands with Hitler who attacked Yugoslavia. Hitler partitioned the country into the Catholic Croatia and the Orthodox Serbia Then followed a massive ethnic cleansing The aryanisation process which separated the Jews,Serbs as undesirables. These were deported to concentrated camps. Children were not spared. The ethnic cleansing was done by the open support of the clergy-priests and nuns supervised and Vatican followed the 'omerta" and looked the other way. Special death camps were set up for children. Several commandants and officers at these death camps were Catholic priests.Francisan monks supervised the mass execution. This ethnic cleansing thus had the blessings of Vatican..There were monetary gains for the Vatican from the Holocaust in Croatia. In the certificate of conversion which was sold for a few hundred of dinars the Vatican netted millions. Vatican was well informed and yet the Pope maintained silence. In fact not a single member of the clergy was held accountable.-though the commandants of the death camps were priests. When after the war, Archbishop Stepinak was arrested for war crimes by the Yugoslav government Puis XII excommunicated everyone who had taken part in the trial. Later the Archbishop was presented as the champion of religious freedom! It is interesting that in 1998 Pope John II traveled to the Republic of Croatia to announce the beatification of Archbishop Stepinak
It must be noted that the Vatican abetted and colluded with Mussolini and Hiltler in all their brutality. It stood to gain both in terms of power and money. Yet we often hear the word 'Fascist' being thrown against the BJP and the saffron brigade. This is part of the christian parampara of the Catholic Church to which Julio Ribeiro and I belong to. Yet we are scandalized by the 'ghar Vapsi. What about the Inquisitions held in India-in Goa .With so much of baggage how can we point a finger to others-to the saffron groups and then pretend that we are being victimized and discriminated? All rapes are abominable and need to be condemned in the strongest terms. But why only the rape of the nun-be it in Orissa and now in W,Bengal be internationalized? Why and how can the Vatican interfere and want to send a delegation?
In a population of nearly one and a quarter billion- human rights violations and inhuman acts are bound to happen. These need to be severely put down not politicized. It is the NGOs which create a kind of phobia .Foreign funds flow and towards this they organize dharnas and rallies. Any violation and discrimination is being attributed to the Modi's government. But then these things had not suddenly surfaced. There is a long gestation period of discrimination-of injecting a fear psychosis. The politicians have communalized the communities.
India is known for its secularism-it is not because the Constitution made it secular. Even before the Constitution the hindus welcomed all religions. Butchery and compulsion and forced conversion were introduced and followed by the Dutch, Portugese the French and the English. Earlier the basic tenet followed by the inhabitants of this great country was Sanatana Dharma. Even today that is the guide and the dictum
I am 78 and thought it is time to speak out .The ordinary people like me are happy and content –feel no persecution or discrimination and are not on the hit list. Even if we are, truth cannot be hidden. In fact it was the Church which had crucified TRUTH and continues to do so. Perhaps there may be aberrations to this. It must not be forgotten that Julio Ribeiro was hounded by a minority community for the alleged human rights violations in Punjab. It was not the Hindus who were behind it. So may be JR has some deep seated fear within him. But then to generalize this personal fear into the whole fabric of the Indian populace is too far fetched
I want to appeal to the government of Modi to ban the foreign funds flow into this country. We should be able to manage with what we have. Why take a begging bowl to other countries and disrupt the peace within. If other countries can manage so can we. I would like to mention about the good works done and which are being done by nuns. But then they have enormous assets. When the foreign invaders left this country they turned over all their land and houses to the churches. As if these are their grandfathers' possessions. By all legal rights these should have been turned over to the government of India. So the Churches had at their disposal land and finances to start with. There is no accountability. Look at the Minority education Institutions which run on their own rules and regulations. Why did the Constitution founders submit to such a request and enshrine it in the Constitution? Is that not discrimination? I have studied from LKG to PG in Minority Institutions. Later I was a faculty in one of the elite colleges in Chennai. I know how they function. The least said about them the better. Yes good work they do there is no denying but it has a price. Money flows into Vatican. There is wealth beyond measure in these Church allied institutions and in churches. So when mammon triumphs where is TRUTH. The same lenses must be used to scrutinize Mother Theresa's work in India.

No, Christians are not persecuted in India -- Sankrant Sanu

India has always been a land of acceptance of diversity. But if the evangelical activities continue unabated, there is no doubt this will cause a backlash.'
'One exclusive ideology begets another. The hit list will spread. The more strident the evangelists, the more strident the voices for Ghar Wapsi will grow,' says Sankrant Sanu.
· Also read: Indian-American Christians want PM to walk the talk
A highly respected retired police officer, Julio Ribeiro, recently wrote a column saying that as an Indian Christian he felt like he was on a hit list. I respect Ribeiro's feelings, even though, as analysis has shown(external link), these are not based on reality (external link).
There is little evidence of Christians in India being on any kind of hit list.
There is a hit list, but thankfully not with Ribeiro's name on it. Unfortunately, I am on it, as are all non-Christian communities in India and throughout the world. This hit list is very systematically organised and is backed by vast monetary and state resources. Consider this description:
Did you know that the Sonar people of Maharashtra, India, are the primary crafters of gold and silver Hindu idols? These idols are the most powerful stronghold that Satan has upon the Hindu worshipers in India and around the world. When the Sonar people embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, the subsequent change in their livelihood could have a huge ripple effect in the world of Hinduism. As one international Christian worker said, "When we reach the Sonar with the gospel, we will see the collapse of Hinduism." Pray that the gospel would flow through and permeate the Sonar culture like molten silver fills a mold.'
The aim is spelled out. It is the 'collapse of Hinduism', and every single Hindu is a target. This quote is not from some fringe group, but from the official pages of the International Mission Board, the evangelism arm of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Southern Baptist Convention, who?
The Southern Baptist Convention was formed in the United States in 1845 mainly to create mission boards. It boasts of over 16 million members and runs 48 Baptist colleges and universities. It counts several past United States presidents among its members and its revenues from member contributions top $9 billion annually.
Then US president George W Bush addressed each of the convention's last four annual meetings. But this is not just a Republican issue. Democrats like Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton are Baptists too.
Not convinced yet? Let me introduce you to the Joshua Project (external link), the comprehensive hit list. Here is the target map (external link), in which red stands for 'unreached people', the biggest target on the hit list.
As you can see from that link, India is densely red.
Just wishful thinking? Hardly. This is fully operationalised, with vast resources behind it. Global Christianity is a $250 billion+ annual revenue machine with a large number of State and non-State actors. The funding for global evangelism's hit list is nearly $50 billion annually. That is quite a supari.
You can helpfully filter as you wish. Yes, they now have 2,412 Hindu groups (up from 1,596 in the database a decade ago) on the hit list but their goals are not confined to 'Satanic Hindoos' alone. Do look it up. When I did a few years ago, I found this:
'Among the targets -- the small Akha group in Vietnam consisting of a mere 3,040 people following their ethnic traditions to the largest groups -- the 13 million Sinhalese who follow Buddhism -- only 4% of which have yet been converted according to the Joshua database. India contains the largest number of targeted groups. Sample targets -- among the Buddhists -- the 102,480 Bhotias in Sikkim, and the 47,030 Sherpas, the 162,210 Tibetan Buddhists and the 8,410,800 Marathi Nau Buddhists; the 3,165,200 Bania Jains; among the Muslims --the 9,796,100 Ansaris, the 6,938,600 Sayyids, the 894,690 Faqirs and the 112,420 Ganchis.'
'The tribal religionists are, of course, the easiest targets, many of them having already been "reached" -- a remaining sample include the Mongpa, all of 850 people, following Tibetan Himalayan customs. The Sikhs are another major target -- further divided into 58 groups, from the 11,581,200 Jat Sikhs to the 880 Assamese Sikhs. Among the 1,596 Hindu target groups -- the 3.4 million Aroras, the 53.5 million Yadavs, the 6.9 million Nairs, the Sonar community of nearly 6.5 million people to the barely 14,000 Kashmiri Hindu Zargars.'
To each of these thousands of target groups gets assigned church planting teams, missionaries, resources, funds, media support, Bibles in their language and dubbed versions of the 'Jesus' film (with children's versions), now available in a staggering 877 languages. No other global corporate multinational could come close to a marketing campaign of this breadth.
Every native culture is on their target list, all must be brought to Christ. Why?
'It is a vision that will be fulfilled, for Jesus said in Matthew 24:14, "The gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a witness to every nation and then the end will come."
The goal is to bring about no less than the End of the World and Judgement Day when apparently Christians would bodily ascend to heaven and all other would be 'Left Behind' for the torment of hell.
You may not know this, but in the US there was an entire bestselling book series called Left Behind (external link) that described the rapture of heaven for the god-believing Christians and the torment of hell for incorrigible heathens like me who would be left behind.
That is quite a hit list. And the most fundamentalist of Christians -- those that believe all other religions are Satanic -- are the ones most active in the evangelism project.
The assault of evangelical Christianity is the spread of this exclusive right-wing Christian belief. But this is no fringe effort.
Here is the description from Tehelka (external link), no 'Hindutva' magazine, that was able to find the same data I did.
'Religious expansionism has not witnessed this scale, scope, and state resources in a long time. Detailed investigations by Tehelka reveal that American evangelical agencies have established in India an enormous, well-coordinated and strategised religious conversion plan. At the heart of this complex and sophisticated operation is a simple strategy -- convert locals and then give them the know-how and money to plant their own churches and multiply.'
'A large-scale intelligence operation that brought together American strategists, theologians, missionary specialists, demographers, technologists, sociologists, anthropologists and researchers to create the most comprehensive people group profiles in the 10/40 window... The 10/40 window, denoting the latitudes on the globe considered the prime target for conversion, has India squarely in its sights.'
Now I don't know about Ribeiro, but I was brought up to value the diversity of religions and cultures on the planet. As I child I would happily go to a Sikh gurdwara and a Hindu temple with equal reverence. Christmas would be celebrated with our Christian friends, often with a visit to the local church.
In the world according to my simple heathen eyes, all this was wonderful. After all, everyone had their own way, and it added to the richness of the planet.
And why can't we be Hindu and Christian and Buddhist all at once?
Since I discovered I was on a hit list about 10 years ago I have been researching evangelical Christian missions. The findings are not great. For this type of Christianity attacks something that has been core to the Indian ethos, the reason for the relative peace and acceptance between different religious communities in India. A missionary site stated the problem quite clearly:
'Anyone who is familiar with India knows that India has always been a challenge to the Gospel. Hinduism that teaches, "Just as all rivers lead to the ocean, all religions lead to God", dominates the thinking of the masses. Many Hindus revere Jesus as another god. Yet their eyes are blinded to the uniqueness of Christ.'
No, Christians are not being persecuted in India. India has always been a land of acceptance of diversity. But if the evangelical activities continue unabated, there is no doubt this will cause a backlash.
One exclusive ideology begets another. The hit list will spread. The more strident the evangelists, the more strident the voices for Ghar Wapsi will grow.
This exclusive dogma is alien to all of us. Like a foreign body intrusion, it will evoke a response. It will lead to competitive madness.
There is a way to reel this back, but to do so we must cease the distinction between Hindu, Muslim, Christian. Rather we should distinguish between all those that are committed to Indian pluralism and reject all those that preach exclusive dogmas.
This kind of money can buy a lot of media support. The facts of this evangelical war upon India has largely been kept out of mainstream discourse in India, even when they have been readily available in the public domain for years.
Now is the time for Indian society to truly say no to this conversion war (external link).
Let us challenge this hit list together, Mr Ribeiro.

From: 'vavamenon' - vavamenon@yahoo.com;
Sunday, March 22, 2015
It is comforting to note that there are good individuals like you who are ready to accept and declare the TRUTH of atrocities and violence continuously applied by the evangelical enthusiasts from the beginning of the Churchianity's inception to the native populations in all the countries without any remorse.
How many of your co-religionists are there to openly admit this Truth even if they know about it and that it was/is/wrong to use unnatural methods to convert ?
I hope, wisdom prevails in the churchianity and they stop their devilish approaches in conversion activities. ...
