In order to promote a happy coexistence of diverse religions, secularism was propounded. The Christian Church will not hesitate to approve the secularist ideals. The gullible Hindu dances in delight at the response evoked by his theories of Secularism and Sarva Dharma Sama Bhav. But you cannot hoodwink all. I remember an incident associated with the life of Mao Tse- Tung. An American Journalist met Mao during one of his Long March hide-outs and said : "In America many people believe that you are only an agrarian reformer not a Communist, what have you to say?". Mao smiled and said : 'I do not care what belief certain sons of bitches are having about me as long as the belief helps my revolution'.
A Christian missionary talks in the loudest language about secularism because it helps his conversion and denationalisation activities. Ask him whether he is ready to accord equal respect to other religions and display his belief in Serva Dharma Sama Bhav he throws his hands up and says 'my religious faith does not permit it'. According to him all others are heathens to be saved from damnation by making them believe in the 'One Word of that One Son of that One God'. This is the nonsense of his secularism. Mother Teresa was asked in the same interview what side she would take if confronted with the old dilemma of Church versus Galileo, she unhesitantingly said : Church. In vain did Europe fight for centuries to free Reason from blind faith. Almost all the good and great among the holy Christians, otherwise admirable are, when it come to the question of Church all closed minds.
What is the way out ?
