1 million Hindus converted to Christianity after Nepal declared Secular: Thapa

TGW

The Chairman of the Rastriya Prajatantra Party-Nepal Mr. Kamal Thapa has dubbed the High Level Political Mechanism-HLPM as an alliance between those who were the victims of Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal and Nepal’s southern neighbor, India.

Very interesting observation indeed!

“The HLPM has been strategically structured to derail the current government and extend the tenure of the Constituent Assembly for sure”, also said Thapa who is taken as the lone crusader of the revival of the now sidelined Nepal Monarchy.

The uninterrupted loyalty factor.

He said, “This conspiracy would lead the country to a bloody civil war and eventually split of the country.”

“There is also the threat of direct foreign interference if we fail to manage the country properly”, said Thapa while addressing his cadres in Kalaiya of Bara district, February 2, 2010.

Thapa also told the Madhesi population that referendum was needed to decide the fate of Hindu State, Constitutional Monarchy and Federalism.

“How can few political parties hold closed door meet and decide all of a sudden that the country has become a secular one”, Thapa questioned.

Sounds logical!

“After the country was declared a Secular Republic, some 1 Million plus Hindus have already been converted to Christianity”, Thapa said adding, “In fifty years time, Nepal will have completely lost its Hindu identity.”

It is a very shamefull thing to be converted from one caste to another . praying for many years a single god and questioning the same god . First of all i want to question where are they living, they are living in "HINDUSTAN" were hindu's do live due to many invassions by other people to our contry they have brought there religion here... they are staying in there religion only but some off the goats who are listening there words during bad times of the person where he blames the god for his deeds and convert into other caste that god has done nothing for him is damn foolishness and silly. government have to take a serious action and must stop these conversions of the caste as these become a serious problem ahead B'coz it raises the diffrence's b/w the god which is a very sensitive matter...

Religion should be based on truth and truth only. Not what your family does or other reasons. As a catholic christian I can understand I would also be upset if people were leaving my religion, because I believe it is the truth. Ofcourse everyone should have a right to choose their own religion, no forced conversions, which is not really a conversion anyway. Hinduism has become so entrenched into Indian culture, and although it has provided a traditional system due to God's law being written in man's heart (natural law), people should investigate religion on their own and find out what is true. Miracles? Who founded the religion? Are beliefs logical? Historical evidence? Prophecies? and on and on. If one is convinced Hinduism is true, that is fine, but do not just choose your religion on family ties and emotions, but on intellectual investigation and logical analysis. Go wherever the truth leads, your eternity depends on it.

There is nothing wrong in converting to christianity.By the by no body is paying anybody in chrisitianity to convert others.yes you can set up hindhu temples in US or England.No body gains anything by converting nepal to chrisitian country or destorying hindhus. we are concerned about peace and love.chrisitianity is nothing but love and service to your poor brothers.if chrisitians pay 100 rs to poor hindhus and convert them, then muslims pay 200 and can convert them to islam. again another rich hindhu org can pay him/her 300 rs to convert back to hindhuisism..you think people are fools? no way..dear brother no body converts for money..poor people convert to christianity coz they get the respect and love that has been denied by you brahmins for all the 2000 years of manuneedhi dharma.for 2000 years we were low caste and treated worser than cows..we were not allowed to drink in the same well..seperate houses..no justice nothing at all..chrisitianity gave us the pride that we are humans not untouchables. stop blaming on christian missionaries and burn the pages in your vedas that teaches brahmins came from head, sudras came from feet and are eligible to clean only shit.Just read the teachings of jesus once then you will understand what is christianity and why so many people get converted to it. You are almost welcome to any church to check if there is any pastors converting hindhus just by giving them money and even by rare chance it happens trust me THEY ARE NOT CHRISTIANS BUT DEVILS WHO LURE PEOPLE INTO SIN. FOR JESUS NEVVER TOLD TO CONVERT OTHERS WITH MONEY BUT BY WORDS AND GOOD DEEDS..and after converting to chrisitianity you can still can have a hindhu name follow the principles of santhana dharma(only good deeds)..you can pray in your own mother tongue..no thing changes..no circumcision or any cultural or bodily change..it is the mind that gets converted towards love and peace not culture..you can be patriotic, pay tax, be a good citizen, love nepal etc., cos jesus did all these..so please change your notion about conversion to christianity.think why people get converted rather than hindhuisim is getting destroyed.let the love and peace of christ be with you all. AMEN.

i think you are ignorant of BIBLE, JESUS , was there before the world begins. HE is son of GOD, HE is with GOD , even at the time of creation, in christianity, GOD is (father+son+holy spirit). here son is JESUS CHRIST, WHO came to this world to make a sacrifice for whole world’s sin. OK , you dont belive BIBLE.. Let us explore your base of hinduism,,,the vedhas.. in bhavishay purana, there are some predictions that GOD him self will come into this world , to make a sacrifice for whole world.he is the saviour, his credentials are 7. they are OM BRAMHA PUTRAYA NAMAHA . OM KANYA SUTHAYA NAMHA. OM UMAKTHAYAYA NAMAHA. OM PANCHA GAYAYA NAMAHA. OM VRIKSHA SILAYA NAMAHA. OM DARIDHRA NARAYANAYA NAMAHA. OM MRUTHYUNJAYAYA NAMAHA.. CHECK IT WITH ANY PREIST WHO KNOWS VEDHAS..PLEASE BE GENUINE. IT MEANS.. OM BRAMHA PUTRAYA NAMAHA = YOU ARE SON OF GOD THATS WAY I WORSHIP YOU OM KANYA SUTHAYA NAMHA = YOU ARE BORN TO A VIRGINE “ OM UMAKTHAYAYA NAMAHA = YOU ARE BORN WITH A HOLY SPIRIT “ OM PANCHA GAYAYA NAMAHA = YOU HAVE 5 WONDS OM VRIKSHA SILAYA NAMAHA = YOU HANGED TO A TREE. OM DARIDHRA NARAYANAYA NAMAHA = YOU ARE RICH BUT FOR ME YOU BECAME POOR “ OM MRUTHYUNJAYAYA NAMAHA = YOU CONQUER THE DEATH.

Hinduism is the Only religion , religion teaches spiritual upliftment of self. Christanity is a Cult , The cultists want every one to join them by any means to increase numbers and capture land. Islam is also same and worst along with being a cult also like a Gang to kill opponents and kill those leaving the Gang . This is not a opinion but Universal truth. The Soverinity of Nepal will be destroyed soon due to being declared Secular , Seperation from Secular India to have A Hindu Reshtra was accepted by Hindus World Over , Nepal Doesnot have to be a Kingdom to be Hindu Rashtra , It Can be a Hindu Republic Like any other Islamic Republic. Otherwise Nepal will do better by Joining India and Becoming a Indian Province , Hinduism there will then be safe as We in India say Secular but at Social level We have the Shivsena and VHP etc to promote Hindu intrests . A Independent Secular Nepal means nothing , So be Hindu Rashtra or Merge with India

Nepal & India are Hindu nation & spread of Christianity & Islam is the largest of conspiracy.The Vatican & foreign missionaries are responsible for all conversions in entire world,preferably India,Nepal & Bangladesh.

Commented by Ashish - February 7, 2010 @ 4:43 PM

These ... Christian missionaries are crossing all limits and that is just because we Hindus, dont have any unity! These missionaries bribe the state govt's in India too and have converted more than 80% of the tribal population to christians... Recently, the EU fact finding committee came to visit the converted christians in Orissa. Many Hindu groups protested it. The bastard chief minister of Orissa, Naveen Patnaik got the protesters arrested for safety of the EU team. ....you christian missionaries!!! These .... just bribe the poor tribals with a few 100 ruppees and get them converted. To hell with your religion!

Commented by Angella Cheng - February 4, 2010 @ 6:38 PM

Dear Nepalese, no need to be alarmed that 1 million Hindus converted to Christianity because many who are converted do not have the conviction of the Christian faith. Many treat Jesus Christ as one of their Gods and many converts are enjoying the hospitality given by the Christians! I call these people "rice Christians"! I've witnessed Nepalese who went overseas for bible training, then hop from church to church to garner financial support, on the pretext of church planting in Nepal only to find out they use the funds given to send their children to private schools! So i won't be surprised if many more are converted to enjoy the hospitality given by the Christians. So don't worry be happy!

In reply to A.S.Mathew's comment,I would like to say that the statement made by Mathew is nothing but a blatant lie. Jesus or the Christianity is never be, "abundant life to anybody without a penny". Everybody knows that the budget of 1000 million dollars to convert this Indian sub-continent into Christianity in next two years, as much as possible. Everybody knows the lavish life and debauchery of Christian Nun and Fathers. Are they the preachers of Jesus or Humanity? The Christian Networks are exploiting the poverty and illiteracy of the innocent people. Actually they are nearest to the Church but farthest from the God. Beware this kind of lairs like Mr. A.S.Mathew, who are the agents of Christian Colonial System. They should be ousted from Nepal immediately.

White people invented secularism to rule the world through capitalism. They have succeeded to a great extent. They now rule both through christianity and capitalism. The solution for Nepal is very simple. Communism+Hindu Monarchy. I would urge all nationalists to unite in this regard and dont be foolhardy. Otherwise we would live to regret it forever.

Commented by Raj Shrestha - February 4, 2010 @ 12:39 AM

Hinduism is the most tolerant religion that is why it ends up being bulliwd everytime. It is not only the christians but muslims take most advantage of secularism too. Western countries are also waking up up to the othe threat of secularism. Time and again they highlight this on TV. Western countries however have the means and preparedness to undo the damage anytime. For Nepal this change would be irreversible. It is such a sad news that those hindus who are illiterate and simple minded are easily tricked by words of the missionaries. All of these people convert to get a better life and think that somehow being christian means more money. They fail to see that Christianity is a sexist religion. Females cannot be priest of pope Their God is always HIM. Their religion is intolerant. Hinduism is the only religion which honour womanhood. We pray to goddesses and attribute love, wealth, wisdom to womanhood. It is such a shame. It is also a shame that indians are into bullying Nepal. disregarding the greater interest of Hinduism. We hindus never got united for this purpose like the christians and the muslims do. Such a shame!. Hope monarchy is restored in Nepal. A massive wave of hindus in india and Nepal for a hindu Nepal would be a pride for all hindus world over. India should help us in this regard. Those SSBs who torture and occupy our lands are also fellow hindu brothers. This was never the Hindu way. Let us all unite to preserve our identity before it is too late.

Commented by Maomeeeow - February 3, 2010 @ 9:48 PM

As a born-Hindu and someone who has not yet converted, why blame anyone who does convert? With all the chi, chi, dur, dur pan that is so typical of the way Hinduism is so tragically & wrongly linked with things like the caste system, the only thing that is surprising is that there aren't 20 million converts. For all those who believe in Hinduism as a way of life, they should set an example: why not win people over or otherwise respect the choices they make?

Commented by A.S.Mathew - February 3, 2010 @ 5:23 PM

Those people who are perplexed and alarmed by the number of people following Christianity has to understand that, it is not changing to an alien religion, but those people found somebody who is living to follow; his name is JESUS CHRIST. He can and will give joy and abundant life to anybody without a penny. It is a reality and millions are following Him around the world, from all religious background.

Commented by Upananda Brahmachari - February 3, 2010 @ 5:06 PM

Nepal was the only Hindu Rashtra in the World. But the Maoists wiped the Hindu identity from Nepal with the connivance of the Muslims and Christians to make the State of their own. There are 53 Muslim countries in this world and 42 Christian countries in that series, but there is no Hindu State for nearing a 100 crores Hindus in this World. The Christians have a subtle plan to double the conversion of Hindus in Nepal. And the Muslims have the plan to run Jihadi activities to frighten the Hindus of Nepal. Some months ago a Muslim Female Minister of Nepal slapped a senior administrative officer publicly for a trifling thing without any redressal. In Arab or Vatican Hindus have no rights. But they get every right to destroy Hinduism in Nepal and India. This should be stopped at any cost. Hindus of the World unite to fight the Islamic and Christian Communalism. Never may we place a mosque or church above PASHUPATINATH. Jai Nepal Hindu Rashtra.

Sounds like conspircay theory of Indain taking over Nepal is fading away. Now, physopath are moved in religion. Christians are involved in taking over Nepal. Religion is private matter,there is should not be an interference from anyone. People should have right to warship any religion they want. Hindu is also a Indian religion, it was transported to trible land by escaping hindus. That does not make us Indian. Why these moran only involved in fear mongoring? Why they don't talk about how to utilized our resources and make every household a prosperus and happy. What are you thining to prosicute and hate other religion. Kamal Thapa's argument is bogus. Mandale able to maintain his power in the name of religion forcing Nepali to worship idiot as a Bishnu's awatar.

Wine Mandela 's (Nelson Mandela's ex. wife) grand mother told her, when she was a child, " Whites came to our country with bible in hand, but we had land , and they converted us to Christianity and gave us too bible. Now we have bible but no land". Nepalese who converted to Christianity in the grid of money or fooled by some bastards that, will get rid of problems, illness etc. Now, after converting are they not falling ill ? They do not have problems? They do not die?

Only uneducated and stupid's can change their belief. I have seen in rural Nepal, the so called new Christian bastards convince the uneducated villagers as " If you become Christian, all the problems like poverty, disease will be vanished" and give money as well. If this is the case why in Africa, where majority of population is Christian so much of poverty and disease exists? Study the condition of Christians in Muslim world. If Christianity is the solution why In American continent and Europe there are so many problems? From which country HIV ADIS started, and where are the majority of population is effected? Where shooting in the schools and colleges happens almost every day? Is Christianity solution? Yes they are rich but are they happy? Did Hindu religion prohibited any Muslims, Buddhists or Christian to go to prayers to their mosque or Temple or Church? Did this religion prohibited other religions? Broken family, divorce , violence are the main features of Christian world. Those people, who were born as Hindus could not understand this most liberal religion, and now what the hell will they understand about Christianity?

Yes, there is no way to deny about Mr.Kamal thapa's statement, although Mr. Thapa is not doing creative action for national intigration and nationality, because Mr.Thapa is a information bank of Nepalese political history, he has rulled the nation as a minister, he must to know what and where is going the nation, who are the visible and unvisible player in Nepal, he must to know the fact of nepal, that ; who killed the late Madan Bhandari for why, who killed the royal family for why, who kickout the our king from Throne for why, who are the bivhisana of nepali politics, what kind of treaty and howmuch are signed with india, who are the designer of fedaralism, republic, and constitution assembly for why, In future what will be happen in Nepal, what kind of status will get by our coming generation, Mr. Thapa know the answer of such questions, but he(not personally he has an strong political party) is not doing anything which we the nepali wants, he is beeing an silent audience by the action, he is doing 'bhasan' only, we the nepali need an nationalist leader to overcome from indian hagamony, emperilism and so on.

Do not follow a crow without first checking your hat simply someone says the crow has taken your hat. Why moan and groan about Nepali being turned into a christianity. Nobody forces or can force you to become hindu or christian. Its about how attractive and appealing you are rather are you and your family being treated with respect and dignity within your faith. People naturally chose the place, person and faith on the basis of his or her quality rather than quantity. Lets make Hinduism more people friendly, unbiased, corrupt free and equal for men and women and people of all castes and creeds. When you do or can do this, there will be no place to moand and groan. But if this very issues is not delivered or addressed in time, nothing in the world can stop people from changing their faith. You know what today's Nepalis' problem are. Whoever solve this, they would follow him or her.

The Hindus will worry only when everything is gone. No point fighting for the religion which has gutless followers. Even if these mad Girija + Sujata one day sell Pashupati mandir, these Hindu followers will keep quiet. Now that our country is a secular, cow killing will be allowed by Supreme court on name of non-discrimination, if some one goes to the court. Our grand children will be telling this story to their grandchildren............ long time back there was a country named Nepal, where a king ruled and his people were hindus ( grand children- what is hindu ? )

Kamal Thapa is 100% right about the conversion of Hindus to Christianity. Last year on the day of Shivaratri some people were distributing the paper about the Bible and Jesus( convincing people) in Gaushala on the way to Pashupatinath. I was really shocked and got amazed to see the tolorence of the Hindus. Just imagine this things happening during christmas in front of any Church in USA or UK. Anyone will be killed if u go and say about Gita near to any Mosque in any Islamist country. Just shame on us...
