Estimated Rate of Conversion to Christianity in India – Can you guess?

 Mass forced religious conversion in India by Christian missionary groups are not reported in mainstream news. My investigation (detailed below) suggests approximately 3.2 million Indians are being converted every year by Christian missionary groups.

Rate of forced Christian conversions taking place in India is accounting for the rapid growth in the Christian religion. Most of the growth in the Christian religion is coming from the conversion of Hindus (and other religions such as Sikhs, Jains, Muslims and Buddhists) in India. Most of these people are poor and vulnerable members of society being coerced through money and reward by Christian missionary groups. This is being well documented in blogs and websites but not in the mainstream news.
 
The conversion of Hindus to Christianity is being done by missionary groups who believe Hindus (and other religions such as Sikhs, Jains, Muslims and Buddhists) will go to hell unless they follow Christianity. The extent of this forced conversion activity taking place is very alarming and detailed below:
 

• The Christian population in India has grown from 26.5 million in 2001 to 76.9 million in 2015. This implies 3.2 million Hindus (and other religions) are being converted per year by Christian missionary groups. (Please see the excel document attached which details my high-level analysis of the situation based on various sources).

 

• The growth of Churches in South of India from approximately 1.5 million in 1990 to over 4 million in 2011 (Please see the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_South_India).

 

• On blogs it’s well documented that Christian groups pay for people to convert, for example, “These guys forced me lot of times to convert and they were ready to pay me Rs 35ooo.” (Please see the following link: http://www.quora.com/What-do-Christians-do-to-convince-Hindus-to-convert-into-Christianity).

 

These issues need to be debated and discussed more in the media to highlight the immoral activities of Christian missionaries in India which threatens the future of Hinduism (and other religions) and the religious diversity in India.
