<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->But if they can wipe out sanskrit in India and all Indic traces to ancient past then they may not really need to explain the origin of their christian traditions since there will be no other competitor for origin. All humankind will beleive in Adam and Noah in 200-300 years! Converted Indians will claim that they are the blessed one since they preserved the original language as told in the Bible.

This might be happening already at some level, albeit in a slow seemingly inconsequential way - not so much toward wiping out sanskrit and the ancient texts, but to replace them with christian interpretations. There are efforts by evangelists to claim that some verses in the Vedas and the Gita were basically references to Jesus. The ''christian' yoga movement in the west might be another attempt at such effort - to remove the hindu aspect in the yoga and introduce the 'christian' elements into it. With the vast majority of Indians ignorant on the vedas and other ancient hindu scriptures, it won't be hard for christians and other anti-hindu groups to disconnect the hindu aspect from these texts and replace them with 'christian origins.'
That way, the concern may no longer be 'what is the origin' of sanskrit or the ancient texts, (or rather, the issue becomes no longer relevant); but the focus is the allegedly 'correct' interpretations of these texts; that is, from the christian point of view - the great language of sanskrit and the ancient texts all point to christianity in some ways.
