Surely the BJP/ Muslim league/ Hindutva (BJP) and the congress/ CPM and other political /religious groups can follow the lead taken by the Christian church. As long as it helps the tribal youth to get the training/ education etc etc to get to the top, what is anybody's problem as long as there is NO PHYSICAL THREAT or VIOLENCE involved? I am sure there isn't any where any contract to sign whatsoever to convert into Christianity? Is there? William Kisku --- ven <ahvenkitesh@ gmail.com> wrote: > As they say, there is no free lunch.
