RELIGIOUS VIOLENCE by Niranjan on 02 Feb 2009

WHEN THE SITUATION WILL BE REVERSED AND OUR TEMPLES AND PRIESTS ABROAD WILL BE ATTACKED, WE WILL BE HELPLESS BECAUSE NO GOVT. WILL HELP US. THOSE DAYS WILL COME WHEN OUR VERY GRAND TEMPLES IN USA WILL CATCH THE EYES OF THE COMMON PEOPLE WHO WILL WONDER HOW COME OUR TEMPLES ARE SO GRAND! THEN?

Religious Violence by viswanadhvv on 02 Nov 2009

Dear Niranjan, If by distributing food and clothing and then money if our priests in USA and UK try to convert them to Hinduism, I myself would suggest the western friends to beat-up those priests. I do not think our priests are trying to convert those people as being done by the Christian Missionaries in INDIA, Kindly try to use your VIVEKAM to discriminate the reality from unreal, the truth untruth.
