I caught this documentary by chance yesterday:
He traces his journey from being a devout Catholic to returning back to Sanatana Dharma.
He describes the lies that were taught (still being taught today) to them about how Catholicism came as a benign force to Goa & the attempts to forcibly Europeanize the local Christians by forbidding them to speak local languages, wear local dress etc.
Quote:Felix Almeida: Calm on the outside, raging on the inside, he is articulate, passionate and brings a sense of historic purpose to the film. As a good Catholic who was almost a saint, he discovers the horrific Goan Inquisition in sixteenth century India, brought about by the Portuguese colonizers in his beloved Goa and has decided to take a drastic step to right a historic wrong.
