I just don't understand as to how people make such random statements! > Reading the e-mail of Mr. Mark D’ Souza, in Goanet today, in which he > states ‘In America there are no anti-conversion laws and there are no > Christian fundamentalist who will go around bashing Hindu Missionaries > or vandalizing Hindu temples and here in India there are anti-conversion > laws and the Hindu fundamentalist go around bashing Christian > Missionaries and vandalizing churches’ etc is absolutely right and true > what he has stated and I fully agree with him.. Do Mr. Mark D'Souza and Mr. Sam Furtado know anything about the hate crimes that take place in the US? Do you know how many Church burnings have taken place in the US, not by folks from other religions, but by Christians themselves? Do you know of cross burnings and hate crimes against minorities? Do you know of vandalism against synagogues and other places of worship? Sure, there are laws but the enforcement and prosecution has taken decades.
Please research all that. You will have plenty to learn and assimilate before trying to bring in the US religious freedoms into any discussions on Goanet. And one more thing, just try converting a person of Jewish faith to Christianity or for that matter try converting anybody to a different faith in the US! You are bound to face stiff resistance and opposition. If there is change of faith in the US, it is mostly by personal choice.
