Just wanted to share a little something, or perhaps a big something, depending on how you see this.
In the run up to major Hindu festivals, Christians in India have approached courts fearing riots. Now there were no signs of any animosity anywhere. This looks like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Here is a blog post that links to a good many instances of scare-mongering through Christian websites: http://blog.offstumped.in/2011/02/08...esuit-madness/
The so-called "hate-campaign" is all in their heads and you can see it from their articles. One priest even goes so far as to say, "even if there is no violence or a forcible conversion of Christians to Hinduism during the Kumbh, the Hindutva campaign will poison the atmosphere in Madhya Pradesh and will negatively impact relationships between Christians and tribals in the hamlets, villages and townships of the region"
Conclusion? Hindus, just by celebrating their festivals are threatening the Christians. I guess they would like it if they went about their proselytising and the Hindus just sat around, doing nothing.
