Haha point taken!
I also think what we really need to do is to arm every aam Hindu with bag full of points/arguments/counter-arguments with which they can use to blow holes in this 'Jesus or the highway' theory missionaries keep spouting.
I picture parents telling their kids what the most appropriate thing to say if missionaries pass degrogative comments about they way we worship or try to beat us over the head with the caste system stick.
(btw, when I say missionaries I dont mean the Benny Hinn types but the local fundoo types you might meet at school etc.)
Ofcourse, all this requires that the parents have strong knowledge of our history and one thing is for sure is that the secular and left types have been largely successful in keeping our civilizational history from us. I still occassionally hear uncles and aunties talk about AIT as if it really happened!
Really pisses me off!
