With all we have on our plate, we don’t have much time to spare for some things, but I do ask that everyone spare a thought and a prayer for the Christians of India who are suffering violence and persecution for their faith. What appears to be happening is a resentment among some Indians that “untouchables” are converting to Christianity in larger numbers and thus threatening the Indian social structure. Indians who accept their “untouchable” status are no threat – Indians who convert to Christianity and thus gain a sense of self-respect and a desire to rise higher than their status at birth are a threat.
I have much love and respect for the people of India and I wish them well and for a ever stronger alliance between the world’s oldest democracy and the world’s largest…but if India really wants to take its place as one of the Great Powers of the world, religious tolerance will be required.
