Maybe The Press Wasn't The Problem
I got big traffic back in February when I looked into a story about Christian missionaries demanding conversation in exchange for tsunami relief. Needless to say the story appeared to be a fabrication. I figured it was the press capitalizing on a misunderstanding to advance thier known bias.
Now I am wondering if it wasn't a purposeful fabrication.
Now I am wondering if it wasn't a purposeful fabrication.
Angry Hindu youths beat three American missionaries and tried to kidnap one as they held a bible studies class in Bombay, police said on Monday.I have some Hindi friends -- I did not think them capable of this kind of stuff. But then they are having to defend themselves constantly against the Muslim minority in that country....
About 30 or 40 men attacked the three, part of a group of eight, on Saturday night because they thought the missionaries were trying to convert Hindus in the Indian financial capital.
