What made Hindus angry in Karnataka 
 
I WAS born in a Catholic family. My uncle was a priest, a wonderful man of warmth and compassion and I spent most my early years in Catholic boarding schools. When I was young I wanted to become a missionary and to 'convert' pagans in Asia. What I was taught by priests was that Hindus worship false gods and they needed to be brought back to the True Word by Jesus Christ.
 
Then of course, I came to India and discovered that actually Hindus, far from being the heathens, as had been portrayed in Europe, not only believed God's diversity, the wonderful concept of avatar, but had given refuge to all persecuted minorities of the world, whether the Syrian Christians, the Parsis, the Jews (India is the only country in the world where Jews were not persecuted), the Armenians, or today the Tibetans.

This brainwashing has been going on for decades.

Cho ramaswamy , in his movie 'Unmaiyae Un Vilai Enna' depicts
the churchianity peddler as the
oh-so-lilypure-cloyingly compassionate blahblah
upholder of truth; cho resorts to a clever strategem--

dons the 'level playing' cap by showing the culprit
too as a sheep of the same flock.
Has a Murugabhakthar Ssivaacharya (Priest) as the fuddy duddy
intolerant....you know ..Again a crafty sop in the end
to ever tolerant gullible Hindus(where Lord Muruga
appears before the priest and clarifies)Come to think
of it the most juvenile sop!

Lord Muruga's ( Personification of Gnanam) Upasakar
is shown a flawed ,loud mouthed, boorish person.

Moral -Appeasers come in different and clever
guises.But one cannot fool all the people all the
time.

That poop even after dying is torturing us and alas is
succeeding too!Some miracle there,I grudgingly admit.

Anbae Sivam is another such sophistry laden christians' posterior worshipping tamil movie.

When there is no one to defend us , self respecting Hindus have to respond in Islamic way.

Demand an exit interview in front of a Magistrate before conversion.

The law forbids conversion by coercion or by financial lure. Let there be a hearing in front of a Magisterial Authority which also must be witnessed by other office bearers for impartiality. Let the would-be-convert be asked his exact reasons to convert. Conversion is a matter of intellectual conviction and that the would be convert feels the new faith to be better. He could be asked: on what grounds? If he only parrots the calumnies fed to him by missionaries, the exposure would be immediate. Use the law, it's not so bad. Taking the law into your own hands only helps your enemies demonise you.
