Indian Christians Pledge to Avoid Aggressive Proselytizing

Banglore: Christian groups have agreed to avoid aggressive evangelization methods in Karnataka, a southern Indian state where religious violence continues to occur. About 250 leaders from 11 Churches and denominations endorsed the agreement at a Dec. 1 meeting organized by the Karnataka United Christian Forum for Human Rights in Bangalore, the state capital.

Participants resolved not to condemn or denigrate Deities of other religions, or the traditions that other religious believers hold as sacred. “The beauty of our faith is tarnished and not enhanced when we denigrate others,” says their memorandum of understanding.

Jesuit Father Ronnie Prabhu, convener of the forum, told UCA News the document participants drew up would help them “follow a common minimum ethic and collaborate in a common plan of action.”
