Why Missionaries scared to convert Muslims?

Shri GSK Menon on Kandhamal Violence

Nobody heard of any tension in this place 15 to 20 years back, but the day the Christian Missionaries stepped in tensions have started, why ?

These Missionary gangs have only one aim and that is to convert. With this aim schools, hospitals are started then the bargaining starts. Sensibilities are affected when you are asked to disown your ancestral gods, ancestors, family ties and accept an alien religion.

In the process the Missionary gangs have to denounce Hinduism, ridicule our gods, customs,rituals (it is a different matter that they are now imitating all Hindu practices). This leads to acrimony and tension. Sometimes families get divided over conversion issues. Some quarrels end in violence. That is what is happenning in Kandhamal and similar other places all over India.

The problem is only with the Hindus. The Missionaries will not dare step into a Muslim enclave. They know they will all meet the same fate as their Christ, so they avoid Muslim areas. The targets are Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Sikhs. But the bulk of the concentrated focus is on Hindus.

The Missionaries need to be put on notice that the present day Hindus are not like their ancestors who suffered for centuries under aliens. We have pride in our religion, customs, rituals and traditions. It is our duty to defend our faith and people. We are under no obligation to uphold “secularism” preached by politicans.
