Christianity is a failed project in India How is it possible for a Hindu to do this? His whole life is one anxious effort to preserve his caste.вЂќДЄlso read: DonвЂ™t listen to VHP and panic. Civilizing the aborigines means adopting them as your own, living in their midst, and cultivating fellow-feeling - in short, loving them. But supposing a Hindu wished to do what the Christian missionary is doing for these aborigines, could he have done it? I submit not. AmbedkarвЂ™s The Annihilation of Caste whereВ heВ stated: вЂњThe Hindus вЂ¦ will probably not admit that the aborigines have remained savages because they had made no effort to civilize them, to give them medical aid, to reform them, to make them good citizens. As he puts it, theseВ schools practised вЂњelitismвЂќ and caste-based education because they taught English only to elite Indians while Dalits were forced to study in the vernacular languages.В If he had a chance to meet a Dalit or Tribal Christian, MandalВ may get a different perspective. According toВ someВ historians, there was no Brahmin presence in that region till the 8th century CE.ДЇurther, Mandal also questions the quality of education imparted by Christian schools. However, the theory that there were Brahmins in the first century CE in the region that later became Kerala (when St Thomas is believed to have come to that region) has been disputedВ by scholars. He argues that the failure of Christianity in the early centuries in Kerala and elsewhere was because they confined themselves to converting Brahmins. Compassion International, a Christian organisation mentioned by him, in a detailed statementВ pointed out that their sole purpose in India was social outreach.В AndВ no official complaint of conversionВ hasВ beenВ filedВ against organisationsВ such asВ Compassion International.ДilipВ MandalвЂ™s severe criticism that the Christian missionaryвЂ™sВ work in India became вЂњa tool for Brahmins and elitesвЂќ seems baseless. Mandal is, obviously, not open to recognisingВ the ideaВ that conversion was not the main purpose of the educational, medical and social work of Christian missions in India. MandalВ alsoВ points out that the Christian population in India is either static or dwindling. Periodically,В expertsВ of mainstream media come up with theories on why Christianity is a вЂњfailed projectвЂќ in India.В Recently, senior journalist and authorВ Dilip Mandal put forthВ the argument that Christianity has no future in India and, therefore, there is no reason for the Rashtriya Swayamevak Sangh or theВ Vishva Hindu ParishadВ to spread false alarm or panic about the proselytising capacity of Christian missionaries.
