I see a great deal of Hindus worrying that Christianity is rapidly growing and expanding, and (not to offend) but it makes me laugh. Christianity is on an overall decline, do not fear this starving beast. The aggressive hungry expansion of Christianity into economically poor countries are its death-throws.
I rejoice that protestant christians have lost over 10% of their followers in the US alone since the 90's. The catholics are taking it harder; the only thing that kept their drop at 6% was the millions of Latino catholics flooding into the country. Over 16% decline in christianity in the US, churches are closing all the time! I hope you take this as good news, and encouragement that you have a fighting chance.
The two drives of christian growth are:
- Poverty
- Uneducated masses
Speaking as an outsider looking in; there are many uneducated people in India who are treaded on by higher castes, and christianity prides itself on reaching out to the downtrodden. By reaching out more to those below your cast, and encouraging and uplifting them both socially and economically when possible.
If you want to fight off christians you need only empower and educate your nations. I don't mean any offense; I just see so many worried people in India over christianity, and I wanted to give encouragement from a western perspective.
