Worse when Francis Xavier introduced the Inquisition. Many Christians as well as Hindus fled when he came!!
OH's community having fled to there from Kashmir when Muslims came then fled from the Christian Portuguese, they settled in surrounding areas. it wasn't reclaimed until 1961, although for some years travel to the old temples had been allowed.

But that is all in the past except for regret at the loss of historical documents etc. no ill will is felt towards the Portuguese or Christians (they fled also from the cruelty) not exactly what Jesus had in mind was it?????

Pathetic !

As usual trying to twist other peeps post into something they never said.

Problem is RM everyone has you well sussed out by now and you're totally wasting your time and effort.

Do you not think it's way past time you began basing your replies on comments the OPs actually posted, rather than making them as you go along to desperately try and give yourself a leg to stand on ?

I see Katy Perry is in a bit of hot water, as one of her dancers in her new video, is wearing a chain with a pendant, that has meaning in islam.

Thousands have demanded the video be taken off YouTube, quite an out cry it seems.

Priorities, priorities, such a hoo ha about a couple of seconds in a music video, when children are facing the worst day of their life, their wedding day.

As seen in th sponsoragirl.org adverts.

And I bet she thought all her troubles were over when she got rid if Russell Brand.:lol:

I don't believe you are under any particular obligation to continue to contribute to something that obviously doesn't meet with your approval, so why continue to frustrate yourself so, when I am sure that there are countless other threads that equate with your point of view ?

The law functioned as it should. A complaint was made, the Department of Education intervened and the ad for "a male science teacher" was withdrawn.
