Hi,
I came across a website and was hurt the way history is been Portrayed. https://www.goainquisition.info/ Everyone knows that Portuguese had big influence on Goa during their 450 years of golden rule. But is it required today to portray the history to create hatred and conflict among the peaceful communities of Goa? I agree, the Christians conversion during Portuguese era, but is it really required today to create that fire of hatred in the hearts of young youths and create the same thing what is happening (killing each other in the name of religion) in various parts of India. There were World Wars in this world. Hitler killed many Jews. Alexander the Great made his impact on earth. The India-Pakistan separation conflict. There are many persecutions taken place in this 4.5 billion year old world. But till date the greatest history writers penned it in a way wherein the young minds take it only as a history and create a more beautiful society ahead. Today's date when we have many other issues of Humanity to sort out like poverty, pollution, global warming etc, the list never ends, and the most recently added Covid 19, and do still we need something else to be armed with? My request through this mail, is that if possible, please push this website to the concern authorities and our Goa state leaders (as I do not have their emails). The writer of this website should be liable for the authenticity of their articles. He can’t just portray articles in the name of history to fuel up religious conflicts. Being a proud Goan Catholic, St. Francis Xavier is my faith and I feel pride to call him ‘Goycho Saib’ Dev Borem Korunv Epifanio Valadares
