1n Faith is a market place. Just because Hindus don’t have control over their own temples, temple revenues, & onerous burdens in starting educational institutions (something an alleged “hindu nationalist” government refuses to give back to them) you can’t deny people the right to

2n convert. This “anti-conversion” is a total charade concocted by BJP apologists, to divert attention from the government’s ongoing control of & addiction to hindu religious funds & educational institutions, and its refusal to empower temples to issue religious compliance

3n certificates for those claiming to be SC/ST/OBC etc. So they create this false canard that hindu disempowerment must by countered by disenfranchising individuals from making their own choices. If you’re poor & a church is offering you money & your children an education - you’d

4n be mad to not take it up. Faith is also a reciprocal process - you pray to god in return for benefits - not continual misery. It shows you the extraordinarily low calibre of intellect on the “hindu right” that they think poor people should just enjoy their poverty & worship

5n who some jobless commentators deem they should worship. This is why the “right wing” in this country is such a pathetic joke. If you want to stop conversion you can’t outlaw it - you counter it through the same means - educational institutions, charities & social support

6n mechanisms. If you study how Christianity took over the Roman Empire when pagans were still the majority, it us because they did what the GoI did to us in 1947 - nationalised all the majority institutions & revenues destroying the religion based social support networks. Ditto

7n Islam in Anatolia. So please spare me your anti conversion BS because it only shows me you’re sociologically & historically clueless & you don’t want to hold @BJP4India responsible for continuing to do to Hindus what Christian Emperors & Turks did in Anatolia. Mind you even

8n the British didn’t nationalise hindu temples, neither did Muslim emperors- but INC did that post 1947 & BJP incidentally supports this & refuses to reverse it. Have the guts to first hold the BJP responsible before you decide to impose more restrictions on personal liberties

9n lastly, obviously I don’t expect most of you to get this because I guess in the QT’s and replies you duffers will conflate this with forced & fraudulent conversions for 3 reasons 1) you’re morons 2) you’re so far up the BJPs ass you’re too obsessed with your “prospects”

10n of getting a pathetic follow or commendation from the PM like the winner of the Kennel Club’s best of breed in the Pomeranian (toy dog) category & 3) you’re too stupid to get forced & fraud conversions are a law & order problem, not a sociological problem and you’re too dumb

11/11 to get the difference between the rarer forced/fraud conversions and the far more prevalent voluntary ones. But then stupid people get the government they deserve - and I wish a lot more of the BJP on you.
