Quote:In TN's many parts some christian associations desirious of foreign funds are running childrens home. Now it has come to light that they have made other state children as capital for that.



Foreign foundations give assistance to many organisations in TN to give basic care and amenities to the orphan and poor children. Some organisations are trying to use that money for selfish ends.When they dont get sufficient children in TN, they fetch children from far off places like Assam,Manipur.



They get their required children either directly or by paying money to agents. They also give sweet talk to the converted there and bring their children. There are allegations that , that children brought in this manner are held in small small rooms without basic amenities and education, and not even properly fed. In the long run they make them as their puppets. Then only they ask for approval for recognition from the government. After getting permission based on the strength of the children they have, they get funds from abroad.The money got in this manner is not audited and is given tax exemption. These organisations use this money for conversions and for their selfish needs.





Until last january in kanyakumari Shaji , a pastor from karakonam, kerala was running a child care centre with 100 children. A social activist gave complain to the police that in that cenre 22 children from assam and 54 from manipur were held without basic amenities.Based on that the police headed by Tirunelveli S.P Asra Garg took action and due to his actions the children were reunited with their families.



Henry,a pastor from Keehaiyur, near mannargudi went to Manipur on 1992. He loved a girl called sreelalingbhai there and married her. He started a organisation called Bethel Development Centre there. He returned back last year to TN with 27 children including 9 girl children. He started a illegal bethel child care organisation in madappuram with those children. After 7 months he applied to the government for recognition. In the subsequent investigations undertaken by officials it was discovered that those children were maintained without any basic amenieties or education and henry brought them with the pretext that they are taking them for excursion. Based on Higher Officials orders these children were rescued and are admitted now in child care centres in trichy and tanjore under the care of Venkatraman. Based on complaint by Child Welfare Board member namasivayam Sembanar Kovil Police have filed case on Henry and are searching him. Other than this it seems some children are rescued from Chennai too.



Until now only children from some centres are rescued. We dont know how many such illegal organisations are operating. Government should find such centres and take strict action against them

Quote:McDaid told Associated Press he had left the chapel believing Benedict had grasped the scale of the problem and the pain caused by it. But two years of subsequent inaction by the church left him disillusioned. "Was it a PR move? Looking back at that now, I have to say it was. Everything they do is not about the children. It's about the church. It's always the church first," he said.



The past few months have seen devastating revelations about clerical sexual abuse and its concealment in churches and Catholic-run institutions across Europe, prompting outrage from the public, and profuse apologies and promises of investigations from the most senior Catholics on the continent.



Next weekend Benedict visits Malta, itself shaken after botched handling of abuse claims. It was reported this month that 45 priests had been accused of sexual offences since the creation of a church response team in 1999. None of the cases has been referred to the police – the retired judge who heads the project said that was the responsibility of victims and parents. The island, which has a population of 400,000, is 98% Catholic and abortion and divorce are banned.

Quote:Part of the misguided finger-pointing stems from what Mangalwadi calls a growing

Christian-Maoist nexus. During the December-January violence in Orissa, a number

of Christian youth were lured into the Maoist ranks by the promise of guns.

There could be more violence in the coming months as suspicions loom over Maoist

intentions and a suspected link to local believers.



The former pastor from Mumbai, who has asked to remain unnamed due to his

involvement in relief work in Orissa, says many families are split between

Christians and Maoists. While some Christians have died for their faith, some of

the people arrested for the death of Saraswati have Christian names. "Those

hot-headed youth who are unable to take the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ and

who are impatient say, 'We will join the Maoists because the oppression is

horrible,'" the pastor said.



Mangalwadi says Christians in India need to define their relationship with

Maoists who have been supporting evangelicals there for some time. Frontline

evangelists, for example, are escorted into the jungle to show the Jesus film.

Halfway through the film, it is stopped for a lecture on Maoism and is then

resumed.

Quote:German groups pump in Rs9710169000 to India annually

By our correspondent

Ahmedabad, DeshGujarat, 11 April, 2010



In the context of German Christian group’s Ahmedabad visit and their critical comments about Gujarat’s Chief Minister Narendra Modi and Gujarat’s religious conversion related law, it would be interesting to know, how much money Germany based groups push to their Indian operations, mainly for religious conversion in the name of service.



Germany pumped in Rs 9710169000 in India as ‘foreign donation’ in year 2007-2008 according to central Home ministry report. The report is available for public on Home Ministry site. However reports of year 2008-09 and 2009-10 are not put on site for public yet. According to the Home Ministry report, Germany was the third top foreign country pushing ‘donation’ to India in year 2007 and in 2006. Germany was second top donor in year 2002,2003 and 2004 with Rs 715.04, Rs 757.13 and Rs 930.92 crore Rs respectively. Germany pumped in Rs 971.02 crore in 2007, Rs 1033.04 crore in 2006 and Rs 1062.44 crore in 2005. Gujarat received Rs 2,38,59,19,000 Rs in year 2004. Ahmedabd district received Rs 1,26,42,000 and was 9th top. In this year Germany’s Miseror Mozartstrasse pumped in Rs 44,02,83,000 and was 10th top agency. Missio pumped in Rs 40,53,15,000(Missio was responsible for Christian group’s infamous and suspicious Ahmedabad visit.) Mission Prokur pumped in Rs 37,99,40,000. Kinder Not Hilfe pumped in Rs 33,13,98,000. Terre Des Hommes -TDH pumped in Rs 30,07,17,000.



As per the Home Ministry report, two German Christian religious groups were among top 15 receiving foreign contribution. One EED-Evangelischer Entwicklungsdienst e.v. of Germany pumped in Rs 105.17 crore in year 2007 only. Another group Neues Kerala C.V. Germany pumped in Rs 174.69 crore in 2007.



It is now well-known that big amount donations in the name of rural development, tribal service and other reasons go to Christian organizations involved in religious conversion of poor and tribal people.



The state of Gujarat received Rs 378.37 crore in year 2007 as foreign contribution. Gujarat was 8th top state in India in this regard in this year and also in 2006 when it received Rs 390.77 crore Rs foreign fund. In 2004 this sum was just Rs 238.59 crore. However it was 8th top even then. Gujarat’s Ahmedabad district was top 8th district in India that attracted highest foreign fun. The fund Ahmedabad district recieved in 2007 was Rs 230.31 crore.

Published Date: April 15, 2010



A Minnesota prosecutor has written to Pope Benedict asking for help obtain the return of an Indian priest accused of sexual assault.



Roseau County Attorney Lisa Hanson mailed the letter Tuesday raising the case of Fr Joseph Palanivel Jeyapaul who is now back in his home diocese of Ootacamund in India, AP reports.



Her office is pursuing his extradition on charges he assaulted a 14-year-old female parishioner while serving at a Catholic church in Minnesota in 2004.



Hanson writes that Benedict could help expedite the case "without the necessity of completing the lengthy extradition process."

Quote:isn't it remarkable that they asked *ratzy* for help, not the indian government?







yanks have correctly figured out that india is a vatican colony. otherwise why wouldn't they ask their pal manmohan to extradite an indian citizen? ergo, two possibilities: 1) all catholics wherever are vatican citizens, 2) the vatican owns india.





since 1) is patently false, 2) must be true.

Quote:Indian Priest in Fla. Assault Incident Turns Up in Italy

Dana Kennedy Contributor



(April 15) -- A priest who pleaded no contest in the assault of a teenage girl in Florida and was sent back to his native India turns out to be still on the job, this time at a diocese in Tuscany, Italy.



The case involving the Rev. Vijay Vhaskr Godugunuru -- which the Vatican was aware of -- is one of many now coming under the microscope as revelations of clerical sexual abuse continue to rock the Catholic Church.



News of Godugunuru's reassignment came as a shock to Jeffrey Anderson, one of the pre-eminent lawyers in the United States in representing people sexually abused by priests. He represented the girl and her family in a civil suit against the Pensacola-Tallahassee parish, which settled in 2009 for an undisclosed amount.



Attorney Jeff Anderson, who represented a teenage girl abused by the Rev. Vijay Vhaskr Godugunuru in a civil case, was shocked to learn the priest is still on the job, working at a diocese in Italy.



"Two weeks ago we decided to check that some of these priests were really where the church said they were, or if they had been defrocked the way we were led to believe they had been," Anderson told AOL News today. "And then we find out this guy has not been defrocked and is in fact working at a parish in Italy with full access to kids.



"This just underscores how stone-cold indifferent the Vatican is to the children abused by priests."



Godugunuru pleaded no contest to charges of assaulting the 15-year-old girl in 2006, while he was assisting at the Blessed Trinity Catholic Church in Bonifay, Fla.



The assault took place in her family's van, according to police and court documents provided by Anderson and available on his Web site.



Godugunuru was arrested on charges of lewd or lascivious battery on a minor and could have faced up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine. Instead, Godugunuru -- who denied the accusation -- made a plea deal under which he pleaded no contest to aggravated assault, a third-degree felony, and agreed to return to his native India, undergo counseling, avoid working with minors and never return to the U.S.



Not long after Godugunuru molested her daughter, the girl's mother wrote to Pope Benedict XVI about the incident, asking him for help. She never received an answer, Anderson said.



But a few months later, the bishop of the Pensacola-Tallahassee diocese e-mailed the mother, saying he had "been in direct contact with the Vatican concerning Fr. Vijay and are gathering documents to be sent to them detailing the entire incident.



"The documentation will include the report of the psychologist, the sheriff and court documents," the e-mail stated. "They will be sent to the Office in the Vatican which deals with priests who have been accused of misconduct, especially when they involve minors. The Vatican office will in turn do a complete examination of the data and make a final disposition concerning the fitness of the priest to continue in the ministry."



Anderson said he had assumed Godugunuru was back in India and also believed the priest had been defrocked.



However, Godugunuru was recently found to be ministering at a parish in a town of about 4,000 in Tuscany, where he hears confessions, celebrates Mass and works with children, according to The Associated Press.



"This is the same thing that's been going on for 25 years," Anderson said. "The Vatican just doesn't get it."



Monsignor Rodolfo Cetoloni, Godugunuru's supervising bishop in the Montepulciano diocese, told the AP he was aware of the case against Godugunuru in Florida, but said he believed him to be innocent.



"The evidence that has been given does not support the accusation," Cetoloni told the AP.

Quote:16. There have been recent admissions from the Vatican itself about nuns being raped and sometimes murdered by missionaries and priests. Similarly, there was a startling expose in the Kansas City Star about the rate of AIDS among Catholic priests in the US being four times the national average. Does this imply that the system of celibate nuns and monks is not quite working? Incidentally, these reports died quiet deaths in the Indian Press whereas they regularly jump all over allegations of misconduct by Hindu sadhus and saints.



Sodomy, incest, the abuse of nuns and the molestation of children have been endemic in the Christian church from its very origins. Read the fascinating book A Testament of Christian Civilization by the famous Jesuit-ex-Jesuit historian Joseph McCabe. He was a linguist and had access to documents that are never published in Christian histories. He records the extraordinary sexual, license among ecclesiastics from the first centuries of Christianity up to the 1950s.



At the various church councils where the Christian creed was formulated, the bishops would quarrel over doctrine during the day and dancing boys during the night. More shocking than the sex was the violence and cruelty that went with it, which found its high point in the Inquisition. This institution was run by Dominican monks and was an orgy of sadism and unspeakable cruelty. It was introduced into India by St. Francis Xavier, whose tomb sits on the site of Old Goa’s most important Shiva temple. In the medieval period in Europe, convents became high-class brothels and their bishops forbade priests to live with their mothers and sisters because of the moral dangers involved. The then pope introduced a rule of chastity for priests and nuns but it was never taken very seriously.



Today there are thousands of priests involved in various kinds of sexual relationships and thousands more who seek to be relieved of their vow so that they can marry. Abuse of children in church-run institutions has become rampant and recently in Canada a major Protestant church has gone bankrupt paying the lawsuits brought against it by hundreds of victims who were sexually molested in church boarding schools. All of this is not very surprising to those who have read history and know the moral rot that has always existed within the Christian church even at its highest echelons. After all, it was not very long ago that the Pope was collecting a tax from the lepers and prostitutes who operated in St. Peter’s Square.



Of course, the great irony in this sad state of affairs is that in Christian doctrine sex is a sin, indeed, it is the original sin invented by woman to bring about the downfall of man. In fact it has brought about the downfall of the Christian churches. They have tried to deny this state of moral debasement but modern human rights and instant exposure in the Western media do not allow the deceit to continue except in India. In India the churches are protected from scandal by state authorities, minority commissions and the English-language press. If the allegedly impartial editors of our national newspapers and news magazines spent as much time at the local convent or seminary or church-run boy’s school as they do at the ashrams of Premananda and Satya Sai Baba, they would get a story much more satisfying of their prurient interests. All of these editors are sewer inspectors at heart but they will not touch a Christian sewer with a barge pole. Such is the power of the Christian church in India and the overt bias of the national English-language press.



The Christian church in India is still an 18th century colonial church financed from abroad. It has a sophisticated international support system in place (and this is especially true of the newer American evangelical churches). It is very arrogant and corrupt, a quasi-independent state that is coddled and pampered by the Indian government and media alike. It is answerable to nobody, which is reason enough for a responsible government to order a white paper investigation into its finances and activities.



Calumny and more calumny is the Church’s current weapon of choice and all of the bad press India and Hindus get in Europe and America originates in bishop’s houses, church councils and the offices of Christian NGOs in India. Their “authoritative” and “secular” views are picked up by an accommodating English-language press and broadcast abroad with alacrity.



The truth of this observation can be verified by listening to Indian editors and Christian fathers reporting from Delhi and Madras to their English masters in London on the BBC’s various religious programmes and South Asia news services in the morning. It does not enter the heads of these Indian media worthies that the BBC is a neo-colonialist radio network dedicated to the promotion of Christian culture and values and British government foreign policy, and that it does not have a kind word for Hindus or Hinduism or Hindu issues even though Hindus make up a large part of its world audience.



(It may be noted that this interview was given to Rajeev Srinivasan with the understanding that it would be published in his column on the rediff.com web site. However, the editors of this website have not published it allegedly because of my criticism of their col1eagues in the English-language media. They have unwittingly proved my point about the pusillanimity and bias of Indian editors and their inability to tolerate any kind of criticism.)

Quote:Kanchi seer opposes religious conversion

19/04/2010 04:52:45 http://expressbuzz.com/edition/print.aspx?artid=166355



KANCHEEPURAM: In what is understood to be a renewed political activism of the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham, Sri Jayendra Saraswati has taken a serious view of what he termed forcible conversions of people in the war-torn Sri Lanka, and is staying in 'close touch' with the happenings in the island nation.



According to the pontiff, the aftermath of a war is always conducive to conversion, particularly to Christianity because the Biblical themes of persecution and exile instantly resonate with them. He is going to oppose "forcible conversions and proselytizing by force, allurement or by fraudulent means," anywhere because it is against the grain of Hindu ethos.



In an exclusive interview, the pontiff said he was going to sensitize Hindus on Indian spirituality and to achieve that end he would organise a padayatra of madhathipathis and sadhus soon.

The 69th head of the mutt said it would be organised under the banner of a newly formed "Mana Matha Ottumai" society and three slogans — Manam Maraathey, Matham Maarathey, Panathukku Assaipadathey (don't change your mind, don't convert, and don't fall prey to lucre) would be popularised.



He said when Sri Lanka was recently trying to enact an anti-conversion bill, he was elated, and then his spirit drooped when the imminent internal strife and subsequent election somehow postponed the legislation.



Recalling his inter-faith meet with Vatican's head for interreligious dialogue, Cardinal Jean Louis Tauran, and Mumbai's Cardinal Oswald Gracias several months ago, he questioned if the Roman Catholic Pope could give an assurance to Israel to the effect that "the Catholic Church would desist from all missionary and conversion activities among the Jews" why cannot they take a similar stand in India.



In response to a question, he said he could not fault the Centre, or for that matter the Reserve Bank of India through which funds are routed to frontline NGOs in India which, hand in glove with Christian missionaries, are involved in forceful conversions of the poor Hindus.



Asked what the people who fall prey to the allurement of conversion missed in Hinduism, he listed two reasons: untouchability and caste entitlement. "We do not practice untouchability but the people of other castes within the context of Hinduism do practice that for societal reasons," the seer admitted.



Criticising that neo-Christians are deliberately following the Hindu traditions and rites, the seer said that in Andhra Pradesh, Christians are conducting festivals a la Hindu Urchavam with flag hoisting ceremonies.



He said he would like to describe India as a spiritual country rather than a secular country.

Quote:With a Muslim president, Sikh prime minister and a Christian head of the governing parliamentary party, the government committed to a policy of tolerance and maintaining a highly diverse society. Yet, the Hindu militant and extremist groups with the support of the BJP at the government level, continue to attack Christian minorities in many states. The anti-conversion bills passed so far make it illegal for people to convert from one faith to another without registering their conversion with the authorities and proving no coercion was involved. Anyone accused of participating in forced conversion can face a 3 year prison sentence. {What an evil "persecuting" law :roll: } Although the Christian population is on the rise and stands at 6% of the country's total population, the government has not released this as an official figure in fear of Hindu extremist reactions.

Let us quote Christian Encyclopedia, [color="#0000FF"]“Christians and Muslims will probably both find room to grow in the mosaic of India’s peoples so that they by 2025 Christians account for 7.4% and Muslims 12.2% while Hindus decline to under 73% (down from 80% in 1900). With sustained growth over the next few decades Christianity could grow to near 10% of Indian population by AD 2025. …………. . Hindus will potentially decline as a percentage of India’s population as other religions continue to win adherents over the next few decades[/color]”47. The deliberate attempt from the part of organized religion can attain the above said target very easily. But all the gains of the organized religions will ultimately result in the death of Hindu culture and civilization. History tells us the story of the cline of great civilizations like Greek, Roman; etc all lost its splendid culture on the onslaughts of Christianity like somatic religions.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM



THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Bharatheeya Vichara Kendram director P.Parameswaran on Friday expressed concern over the projection made by the ‘World Christian Encyclopaedia’ that the Hindu population of the country would be reduced to 73 per cent by 2025.



The encyclopaedia published by the Oxford University Press in 2001 projected that the Christian population in the country would increase to 7.5 per cent of the total population by 2025, Parameswaran said in a statement here. Among them, two crores would be crypto-Christians (believers in Christ, but not professing it publicly), he quoted from the encyclopaedia.

[color="#800080"](And therein lies the danger. Cryptochristianism ought to have been exposed. But Hindus never do that. Because it hurts secular Hindus' sentiments to think of injuring christian sensibilities by mentioning individuals' christianism.

But the alternative will be more painful - for all Dharmics, not just the secular kind.)[/color]



[color="#0000FF"]‘‘In the context of the growing anxiety and the raging controversy over the alarming increase in the population of Muslims and Christians and the perceptible decline in the growth of Hindu population in India, the World Christian Encyclopedia reveals certain grave tendencies and discloses demographic data, which are thought-provoking,’’ the statement said.



Parameswaran said that the chapter dealing with India was of special importance as it projected seven per cent decline in Hindu population and 7.5 per cent increase in Christian population by 2025. He said that the data as well as the projection of the Encyclopedia lent credence to the anxiety expressed by people on the basis of the latest religious census released by the Government of India.[/color]



‘‘The various kinds of activities organised by a number of churches like acts of charity, relief work, education, media etc though not leading to outright conversion, end up in adding to the number of crypto-Christians. Hence it is necessary that the concern expressed should be seriously addressed,’’ it said.

Quote:World Christian Database: India is now 6% Christian



Posted April 25, 2005



[...]

The 2005 edition of the World Christian Database (http://www.worldchristiandatabase.org/) says that India is now 6% Christian. The government of India last conducted a census on the Indian population in 2001 said that Hindus were 81.4% of the population followed by Muslims at 12.4% and Christians at 2.3%. However, the more recent data from the World Christian Database states that Hindus are now 74% of the population and Christians are 6% of the population. The new survey claims that Catholics have grown from 1.52% of the population in 1970 to 1.66% in 2005. The recent data suggests that the rampant and aggressive conversion by Christian missionaries is much more widespread than previously acknowledged.



Religious breakdown in India according the World Christian Database:



Hindu: 74%

Muslim: 12%

[color="#0000FF"]Other Christian: 4%

Catholic: 2%[/color]

Sikh: 2%

All other: 5%

Quote:The War Against Hinduism



Posted September 21, 2003

By Stephen Knapp



Another way of looking at this is that India presently enjoys an 85% Hindu majority in its population. This may sound quite significant, but in actuality this includes 15% Buddhists, Sikhs, and Jains. So it is really only a 70% majority. [color="#0000FF"]How many more generations will go by before we see a big drop in this percentage[/color] due to the process of secular (meaning Christian or English, or even Islamic) education, or with the present rate of conversions by tactless Christians? [color="#0000FF"]This percentage could easily drop well below 50% in only several more generations at the present rate of change.[/color]



[color="#0000FF"]How many more generations will it take before the Hindu majority is no longer a majority, but a minority in its own country? As Hinduism declines, you will see that the demands on the government and those voted into politics will also change, and the laws will also alter more in favor of the increasing minority religions at the expense of declining Hinduism. Then as the years go by there will appear only small clusters of Hindu or Vedic communities, most likely centered around prominent holy places, until the more aggressive religions act in ways to diminish these as well, in the same way that they are presently doing in other countries.[/color]

[color="#0000FF"]In 1974 Walbert Buhlmann convincingly demonstrated how the centre of the world Christianity was shifting from the Atlantic region towards the Pacific region.[/color] At the beginning of the century eighty-five percent of the Christians and seventy-seven percent of Catholic population were living in the northern hemisphere. The southern hemisphere had only fifteen percent of Christian population and twenty-three percent of the Catholic population. By the year 1960 the Catholic population had shrunk to fifty-two percent in the North and grown to forty-eight percent in the South. Twenty years later the population of the Catholics in the northern hemisphere was forty-two percent; and in the year 2000, sixty percent of Christian population will be in the South and the remaining forty percent in the North. [color="#0000FF"]Buhlmann's conclusion was that the First Church (Oriental Church) dominated the first millennium. The Third Church (a new Church in the southern hemisphere) will most probably dominate the Church in the third millennium (W. Buhlmann, 1976. 86-87,129-60).
