Cost of following Christ in India torrent

Many westerners remember MK Ghandhi and think that hinduism is a very serene religion. But it is not so. Being an Indian Christian, I can assure you hinduism is the most dangerous religion for Christians in India.

Priests are hacked to death, nuns are raped, missionaries are burned alive, Churches are torched, Bibles confined to flames and ordinary christians harassed at every juncture in their lives. This is everyday news in India. (Just last month we had the gang rape of a nun in Orissa in front of 10 hindu policemen who were enjoying the scene. I would not have been suprised if they had partipated in the crime also). All for following Christ as Jesus had prophesized in the Bible.

The alibi is offered that hindus are doing this because christians are converting hindus by fraud. When in truth hindus are converting because of the demonic caste system (which the hindu religon claims as designed by God). The hindu caste system considers and treats a certain section of hindus (the backward castes - similar to the gypsies of Europe and the red indians of america) as well as Christians and Muslims worse then animals.

The real issue is the clash of ideolgies. Christianity and hinduism are the most diagonally opposite religons. If we go by the Bible there is no difference between the ancient canaanite religion and hinduism. People who are born and brought up in India are very much aware of this as occultic practices such as human sacrifices to Gods (like Kali), idolatry (330 million gods), worship of self, worship of money and wealth, worship of penises for vitality (called Lingam), black magic, wife burning, witchcraft defines this religion. Since Christians are aborrent to such things and do not particpate in them, they are a hated lot in India. And that is why the hatred is directed against Christians.
