well, why don't you fix how the israelis treat palestinians first before trotting out the old 'caste-curry-cows' artifact? or about how you white people dealt with blacks in new orleans during hurricane katrina.
besides, this fellow was on the first boat out, and he *is* village headman. that counts for nothing?

Only a Bengali Brahmin can come up with such a despicable and biased report.

Christians cower from Hindu backlash in Orissa

Christians responded with some -- not proportionate -- violence. Almost all the villages Reuters visited bore evidence of attacks on Christians.
On the contrary, the missionaries have a reputation of running some of the finest schools in India.
Intolerance has risen, though, in the last two decades with a revival in Hindu nationalism in India, and a new agenda to fight "foreign faiths" said to be undermining Hinduism.
With political power, Hindu nationalists in several states have made religious conversion either unlawful or extremely difficult. Orissa has seen some of the worst violence against Christians.
The missionaries built schools and hospitals, and their work persuaded many Adivasis and ethnic Panas, who belong to a Hindu lower caste, to convert to Christianity.
Last week's violence was largely a backlash against the murder of a Hindu proselytiser who ran a local campaign against Christian conversion. Maoist rebels said they had carried out the murder, but Hindus blamed Christians.
Pope Benedict has condemned the latest violence and the Italian government has told India it was "very worried and sensitive to" the attacks on Christians.
"... It is a fact that the Churches and missionaries take the help of Maoists to fight Hindu organisations and Vatican must be aware of it, as it organises enough funds for such activities in the name of education and health care.
Also, with the blessings of the Papacy, many coercive methods have been operationalised by the Christian Missionaries and the 'inculturation technique' is one among them. Adaptation of Hindu cultural customs and rituals to propagate Christian faith has been vigorously going on and it has reached its height with the release of 'Indianised' New Community Bible (NCB), which includes references from the Vedas, Upanishads, Mahabaratha and other Hindu scriptures.
This inculuration modus operandi is devious strategy, literally mocking at the Hindu majority and provoking them to beyond the limits of tolerance. Such provocations, added with militancy, insults the Hindu majority forcing them to react. Even then, they do not stop their activities and continue with the help of the pseudo-secular media and political parties.
A new breed of missionaries tied to expansionist evangelical movements from the US, GB and Australia are playing havoc in tribal and coastal areas. The destruction caused by the 2004 tsunami was fully utilised by these missionaries to convert many coastal belts of Taminadu.
They constitute 'Indian Evangelical Teams' (IET), which are very aggressive and unprincipled in nature. The Christian Science Monitor reports that these IETs have already planted 2000 Churches and they have set a goal of 7,777 Churches by the end of 2010.
The Vatican, which called for the evangelisation of India in 1999, cannot claim to be ignorant on all these matters. The Pope, who had said that St.Thomas had never landed on Indian soil, has also agreed to promote the movie on St.Thomas being produced by the Madras Archdiocese, knowing pretty well that a total distortion of history and inclusion of false history has been a part of the making.
On one side the Pope has been appealing for love, peace, harmony and co-existence of all religions and on the other side, he has been promoting all sorts of evangelical methods...."
A "messianic Jew" perhaps ? Might as well be an idiot of the regular kind, like Noam Chomsky. When it pertains to India and the Hindus, various strands of Mlechha opinion coincide in condescension. Who cares for this loser and his trash anyway? He can shove his idiotic rant...,
My experience with such bigots is this: Walk straight with your head held high and your shoulders wide, don't even look at the two bit jerk. If one is confident and assertive based on one's strength, no jerk whether christist or mullah or commie can touch you
