SOUTHERN NEWS - TAMIL NADU Mar 28, 2008 Christians threaten to revert to Hinduism Friday March 28 2008 10:46 IST P Arul VILLUPURAM: Exposing the deep-seated animosities and divisions within the fold, over 20,000 caste Christians of Eraiyur village have threatened to revert to Hinduism, unless a separate parish was provided to the Dalit Christians there. A parish in Eraiyur village was devastated by clashes between the two groups a fortnight ago. It all started with the Archbishop Antony Anandarayar permitting Dalit Christians to undertake a funeral procession on Church Road, a privilege they had been denied for more than a century. Protesting this privilege to Dalit converts, caste Christians have threatened to revert to Hinduism.
