virtual replay of the post-Godhra riots of 2002, the secular and
foreign media has worked overtime to delink the ugly, provocative
murder of 80-year-old Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati and four disciples
on Krishna Janmastami day with the violence that subsequently rocked
some districts in Orissa. This is simply not on.

Are Missionary Schools different from Madrassas?

On August 29, 2008, all Roman Catholic educational institutions across
India remained closed for the day. The decision to close down all
catholic-run schools was taken on the directives of the Catholic
Bishops Conference of India (CBCI) after consultation with different
churches.
August 29 was Friday, and no national holiday was
declared on that day. Then, why did CBCI decide to give a holiday to
the school children?
It was "protesting the communal violence on Christians" in the Indian state of Orissa.

Christians threaten to form militia
( published Friday, 05 September 2008 03:39)
source: Gulf Times, September 1, 2008
Published: Monday, 1 September, 2008, 01:41 AM Doha TimeNEW DELHI:
A Christian leader from Orissa warned yesterday that if the government
failed to stop attacks on his community, Christians in the eastern
state will be forced to raise a militia for self-defence.
“All that
the governments have been doing, both in the state and at the centre,
is paint an illusion. Beautiful, but hollow words is all they have to
offer. It’s been eight days and the violence continues. If such a
situation persists, we will have no option but to form our own
‘Suraksha Vahini’,” the priest said on condition of anonymity.
Fourteen people have died in days of unrest sparked by the killing last weekend of a popular Hindu leader in Orissa.
The violence has brought... Read more...

The Truth About “Attack on The Talahena CalvaryChurch” in Sri Lanka
( published Monday, 25 August 2008 03:20)
Ramani D.Wickramaratne
In mid-July 2008
emails were circulating among Christian circles both local and international,
through their Christian news networks about “Sri Lankan Church Under
Attack………..very serious…………” Commencing from 10th July when Ted
Rubesh & George Niranjan Vice President/Gen. Supervisor Four Square Gospel
Church Sri Lanka sent out a message of the Talahena Calvary Church coming under
attack “…..by a mob of Buddhist monks and supporters just last Sunday.”
Stories such as this is not strange to be circulated among Christian news
networks because their intention as always is to show the international world
that Buddhists and Buddhist Monks here in Sri Lanka
are intolerant morons who do not respect minority religions! By spreading
distorted “half truths” the Christian Churches both orthodox and “Born Again”
Charismatic Churches hide the real truth and spread the lies to gain sympathy
from their supporters and fellow Christians to build up an anti-Sri Lankan
/anti-Buddhist propaganda network. This is a very normal thing for the over
zealous Christians who are attempting to make the entire Buddhist country of Sri Lanka
into becoming Christian or Catholic with their so called “outreach programmes”
through which they think and hope “they can save the heathen Buddhists and
Hindus!” To them, except for Christians, all other followers of non-theistic
religions (in reality Buddhism is not a religion but a philosophy) are “groping
in a spiritual vacuum” which is far from the truth & that it the duty of
such over zealous Christians to save us which is both hypocritical and ironic.
Even though it
is a waste of time, to spend on these speculations it is also absolutely
necessary to explain how these lies came into being.... Read more...
