Dear V If you look carefully, almost all of my mails have been responses to mischeivous and hurtful mails posted by three persons on this listserve. The counters are not aimed at you people, because I know the inflexible mindset and pattern of hindutva fanatics (actually all fundamentalisms), but are aimed at many other members who could be influenced or subverted or misinformed by your propaganda.
I have neither smeared Hinduism or Christianity- and neither have I supported Missionaries. My only emphasis has been on the mischeivous and hurtful agenda being propagated by you and I don't think that it is wrong to oppose a fascist ideology like Hindutva (which is not Hinduism). As a Hindu I retain the right to critique those who sully the image of my own religion - even though it takes my precious time and effort. You and your Hindutva are the usurpers here - who seek to use my religion for politically nefarious ends. In case you want to discuss problems arising out of Christian missionary activities, you need to do it without hurting feelings of other people on this listserve - not as a packaged propaganda. There are many problems linked with mission activities in India- both christian and Hindu- and they need scholarly and objective discussions. But I have no interest in entering into discussions with the likes of you - because your minds are closed and you are pushing a rightwing, hatefilled agenda. You people don't bring your agenda onto this listserve, and I will not counter you - thats all I am saying. That will spare the listserve members of this interminable debate on Hindutva and Christian missionaries. It is difficult for me to keep quiet in face of such lies and propaganda coming into a listserve whose main reason for existence was Jharkhand and its people.
