@mvmm12 @Shamsher736 @SanjeevSanskrit Bit rich, especially coming from the RW who has committed multiple atrocities on Indian Christians including tribals. Remember Staines? Stan Swamy? As for church lands, stop reading Organiser for land records & check in registrar's office. 😁

@adleecrasta @Shamsher736 @SanjeevSanskrit Indian Christians have a moral duty. Churches across India still indulge in the proselytization of Hindus. They are afraid to go to Muslim area to preach. They take over land of the people and now owns 3rd largest land across India, after defense ministry and WAQF board.

My chatgpt on Why admiration of Francis Xavier creates Hindu distrust on Christians. 1. The issue is not whether Christians have the right to follow Christ. They do. The issue is whether Christian institutions in India can continue publicly venerating Francis Xavier as a moral and civilizational hero while expecting Hindus to trust missionary activity without suspicion. That expectation is unreasonable. The distrust is not imaginary. It is evidence-based. 2. Francis Xavier's own letter records idol desecration In Xavier's own missionary letter from India, he writes that when he hears of "idolatrous worship," he goes to the place with a group of children. He says the children run at the idols, "break them to pieces, spit on them, trample on them, kick them about." This is not a later anti-Christian allegation. It is Xavier's own reported conduct. Reference: Internet History Sourcebooks, Fordham University - "St. Francis Xavier: Letter from India, to the Society of Jesus at Rome, 1543" sourcebooks.web.fordham.edu/mod/1543xavier… 3. His contempt for Hindu worship is visible in the same source The same letter describes Hindu worship as "idolatry" and frames the idols as connected with the "devil." It also records that Xavier encouraged children to develop "hatred for idolatry." That is not respectful disagreement. That is civilizational contempt. Reference: Internet History Sourcebooks, Fordham University sourcebooks.web.fordham.edu/mod/1543xavier… 4. Portuguese Christian policy in Goa targeted Hindu temples and practices Britannica records that on March 8, 1546, King John III ordered the Portuguese viceroy in Goa to destroy Hindu temples, stop Hindu practices, prevent idol worship and Hindu festivals, and evict Brahmins from Portuguese territory in India. This shows the wider missionary-colonial environment in which Hindu sacred life was not merely criticized but actively suppressed. Reference: Britannica - "Goa Inquisition" britannica.com/event/Goa-Inqu… 5. Xavier requested an Inquisition in Portuguese India Xavier died before the formal Goa Inquisition began. That must be stated honestly. But Britannica records that Francis Xavier wrote to King John III on May 16, 1546, requesting an Inquisition in the Portuguese Indies. So while he did not personally run the later Goa Inquisition, he cannot be morally separated from the demand for coercive religious enforcement. Reference: Britannica - "Goa Inquisition" britannica.com/event/Goa-Inqu… 6. The Goa Inquisition later expanded against local Hindu practice Britannica records that the Goa Inquisition was formally established in 1560. Its original focus included suspected heresy among converts, but it soon expanded to include Indian converts suspected of secretly observing Hinduism or Islam. This means Hindu continuity itself became a target under Catholic coercive machinery. Reference: Britannica - "Goa Inquisition" britannica.com/event/Goa-Inqu… 7. Xavier continues to be publicly glorified by Catholic institutions Vatican News calls Francis Xavier "Apostle of the Indies" and "Patron of the Missions." It celebrates his missionary career and baptismal work. Reference: Vatican News - "St. Francis Xavier, Jesuit, Apostle of the Indies, Patron of the Missions" vaticannews.va/en/saints/12/0… 8. Pope Francis also described Xavier as the patron of Catholic missions and presented him as an exemplary model of apostolic zeal. Reference: Vatican - General Audience, 17 May 2023 vatican.va/content/france… 9. This is the central contradiction. Christian institutions cannot glorify a missionary who showed contempt toward Hindu sacred forms, who reported idol desecration, who operated within a colonial environment hostile to Hindu temples and Brahmins, and who requested an Inquisition - and then expect Hindus to show automatic trust toward missionary activity.

@tripathy_ankit @SanjeevSanskrit Selective portrayal of atrocities commited by Portuguese and attributing those to St. Xavier while ignoring those perpetuated for centuries by local kings & rival Hindu kingdoms who have smashed temples on an industrial scale. Where was ur spine then? Don't cry holier-than-thou.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit No you don't. You people simply lack the spine and the courage to stand up for yourselves. Your ancestors, quite literally, are the victims of what this deranged mentality did to a kind & welcoming population. Nobody in Odisha even remotely reveres anyone who believed 1% of this

No. You are wrong. Letters of Francis Xavier clearly state his hatred for Hinduism. If you pray to such a person for blessings, Hindus are at no fault to not trust you. Here is one reference from his own letters.

@AstroCounselKK Bro thinks Vijay is some converted movie star with zero exp incapable of running a state. N yet we have temple running camerajeevi in PMO who bro thinks is gods gift to mankind. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can you even gauge how big a BLUNDER TN people have done.. Its beyond any logic and reasoning .. How big a fool they are seriously is beyond me.. Specially Tamil Hindus.. Voting for a Christian ✝️ convert . A person with ZERO administration experience No achievements to show .. Nothing at all ... Just a film actor who fools people on screen with multiple takes.. Can you give an important and BIG rich state like TN to such a person who is no where near someone talented like Anna Sir @annamalai_k .. TN people have now voted for a blunder like the one did by Delhi by voting for a liar like Kejriwal in 2013.. This is Kejriwal moment of TN.. Its suffering start now.. Trust me it will be worse than DMK rule even. Sad 😔 and pathetic .

@anooplive @BalaYadav551329 @SanjeevSanskrit I don't support the Inquisition either, was a terrible time when even Christian converts suffered. But ur rage is misdirected towards St. Xavier who is icon of the Goan Christians rather than Portuguese rulers who committed atrocities. Get ur apology from Team P instead of Team X

@adleecrasta @BalaYadav551329 @SanjeevSanskrit Incredible, the type of sick mind you rice-bags possess - so brainwashed, so filled with hatred!! I hope and pray to every god that someone like Xavier comes into your life and the lives of your loved ones, and tortures you exactly like he tortured Hindus Karma'll never spare u

@ColtaineCC @theinclusivist @SanjeevSanskrit Bro u have conviction as if uve personally audited the apostle's passport stamps and carbon-dated his sandals. Especially when, St Thomas Christians of Kerala have been living, breathing here even before parts of India had coherent identities.

@adleecrasta @theinclusivist @SanjeevSanskrit Thomas never came to India, that's a myth.

@ms_twtapi @SanjeevSanskrit Bro woke up, read three cherry-picked lines from Xavier's letters on X, and declared himself anti-colonial historian exposing "terror." FYI, 1600s Goa wasn't a peaceful vegan yoga retreat. Hindu kings, Muslim sultans were already smashing temples on industrial scale fr centuries.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit Dont be a terror apologist.

@yajnadevam Says the guy with a full harem, that his neighbor has a framed photo of his wife on the wall.

Some monotheism

@SanviSharm49500 Only On twitter. Fact remains that it isn't closer to this dream than it was in 1947.

India Is A Hindu Rastra .

@tripathy_ankit @SanjeevSanskrit Goan Christians venerate st. Xavier as part of their local customs n practices as he chose Goa over his ancestry & as their patron saint. Just as Ashoka or Shivaji, St. Xavier didnt direct the excesses the Portuguese did during the Inquisition which began much after his death.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit Im from Odisha. Ashoka did a massacre in Odisha, Odisha avenged it few years on. That was the death knell of Buddhism in Odisha & we don't worship him. Shivaji didn't do anything in Odisha. Raghuji Bhonsle freed Puri dham. We don't worship any of them either. You worship Xavier

@Rajeshmayekar6 @LazyTalukdar @SanjeevSanskrit And for those who would like to know the flip side I'd suggest... Unmasking Mother Teresa's Critics by Bill Donohue (2016)..

@adleecrasta @LazyTalukdar @SanjeevSanskrit ...do check....."The missionary position " by Christopher Hitchens..

@theinclusivist @SanjeevSanskrit Christianity existed in India from St Thomas the Disciple thats over 2k years ago. Saying Catholic veneration in India was only post Colonial discovery is plain silly.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit Indian Christians like Adlee are either unaware of or are suppressing "The doctrine of discovery" put forth by the Church that enabled colonial oppression around the world.

@BrahmchAri @RottenForces @trigunatheetha @SanjeevSanskrit Whether u "shoved it" well back then or adhered to them rules well, today ur a better person because of that action. Remember that.

@adleecrasta @RottenForces @trigunatheetha @SanjeevSanskrit You need to shove these rules up your rear end. Such anti- Hindu rules have no place in India.

@mumbaiheritage Its rarely called Flora Fountain.. Just Fountain.

Old Mumbaikars still say VT, not CSMT. Still say Flora Fountain, not Hutatma Chowk. Still say Bombay, not Mumbai. Some names just refuse to die. Which one do YOU still use? A. VT instead of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus B. Bombay instead of Mumbai C. Flora Fountain instead of Hutatma Chowk

@LazyTalukdar @SanjeevSanskrit Goan "Christians" have suffered much more in Inquisition. Who must they ask for apology? As for lying, actions r louder, where you won't help a leper on streets of Kolkata but will cry "conversion" when a poor nun picks that dying leper, feeds him & gives him dignity in death.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit The raids were by the mercenary army of the maratha unit that wasn't during Shivaji's timeline. They were bargis and they looted the treasury of Bengal to weaken it, not massacare. You christians are just lying vermins arent you. No wonder you try to hide Goa inquisition.

@BrahmchAri @trigunatheetha @SanjeevSanskrit St. Xavier disliking Hindus, NOPE as he was a missionary, he had to love his work. Especially ppl he converted were much loved. So hatred for Hindus. Nah. If he hated them, yet went among them preaching Christianity then liked them just because they converted sounds silly.

@adleecrasta @trigunatheetha @SanjeevSanskrit His own writings show contempt and hatred for Hindus and their religious practices.

@kingkapoor72 If ur banking on Non-Halal meat n crap tasting food, ur gonna get a surprise very soon. Halal or not, taste matters to the end consumer. If it sucks even ur best mate won't come to eat for free. All the best in ur restaurant endeavor.

Today, a lot of supporters came to dine at Rangrez, a Non-Halal Indian Restaurant in London. One big group of Indians and another one of Brits. Thanks to you all.🙏🏻

@garvit_sethii Still so much better than scam gained, corrupt, caste based voting done in UP Bihar. Here at lease ppl unified across the spectrum to vote for someone who may bring about a new sunrise in TN. All the best to him.

Tamil Nadu saarrrr 100% literacy rate saarrrrr Bihar bimaru saarrrrr We vote for Actors saaarrrrrr🤡

@JSPWorks Thats the problem with these Sanghi ppl. Cannot see outside the spectrum of religion.

Tamil Nadu One Christian CM exit Another Christian CM Entry Tamil Nadu People 🙏

@trigunatheetha @SanjeevSanskrit St. Xavier has nothing to do with persecution of ppl in Goa during the Inquisition which started after his death. So ask the Portuguese to apologise for their deeds. Expecting Indian Christians to not revere their St. as rulers from Portugal committed atrocities is foolishness.

@adleecrasta @SanjeevSanskrit So why pray to him for blessings? Hasn't he proved that he's a monster? Go to any Christian institute in blr (personally seen), they have glorified maps n informatics on their walls/notice boards about how he went abt the inquisition. The contempt is not misplaced at all.
