(India constitutionally is a democratic &#8220;secular&#8221; republic meaning it is equal for all citizens).\u00a0 \u00a0What the volunteer observed in patterns of violence across the country.\u00a0 In this, they noticed that when a small group of Christians would gather together perhaps for prayer, fellowship, or even for dinner, they would have a mob that would descend into that home or the church and beat up everyone present there!\u00a0 They would then take the leader of that particular meeting such as the pastor or evangelist and drag them to the police station and try and have them arrested under laws called the anti-conversion laws.<\/p>\n<p>What the anti-conversion law requires Christians to do is every time there is a religious conversion, it must be reported to the district authorities.\u00a0 The district authority is then to launch a formal inquiry into your religious conversion and they will decide whether or not your conversion was under force, the term force includes the term Divine Displeasure.\u00a0 So this means if one holds a gun to one&#8217;s head and said, &#8220;Convert to Christianity&#8221; of course, one would be guilty under the law.\u00a0 But if one also said, &#8220;If you don&#8217;t believe in Christ, you could go to hell&#8221;, that is the threat of Divine Displeasure and, therefore, you would be guilty under the law.<\/p>\n<p>(At the present time, the laws are in force in eight out of twenty-nine states: Arunachal Pradesh, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Uttarakhand).<\/p>\n<p>A pastor has a case against him and he is having to defend himself in a court of law, but the mob that beat him up or dragged him to the police station has no action taken against them.<\/p>\n<p>The Indian Christians challenged this law in 2012, can it ever be the state&#8217;s decision to decide who can or cannot be a Christian.\u00a0 Who could intervene and who could stop that conversion. (no one until now can prove there has been a forced conversion unless it is a setup propaganda case).<\/p>\n<p>The anti-conversion laws fail to protect the dignity of each person and violate basic international human rights norms.\u00a0 One group under threat is the Dalits, which comprise 70% of the church community in India.<\/p>\n<p>ADF states, &#8220;We want to stop violence and hostility against the Dalits and the negation of their rights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The volunteer said that she is excited about the fact they can take these challanges to the High Court and the Supreme Court of India knowing that they stand on solid ground. The Indian Constitution provides under Article 25 the freedom of conscience and the right to propagate, profess and practice one&#8217;s faith. It is a Constitutional fundamental guaranteed right.<\/p>\n<p>Protect your fundamental freedoms and human rights.<\/p>\n<p><em>Well, speaking about India as the world&#8217;s largest democracy, one wonders how people of other faiths in the democratic West which is predominantly Christian would feel if Christians forced them to say &#8220;Jesus Christ is Lord&#8221; and forced them to partake of the communion or even made everyone forcefully wear Crosses. Thank God no one does it there!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> When one talks of freedom of rights, one has to respect the parameters of everyone&#8217;s religion, which is quintessentially run by different rules, customs, and belief systems which is why religion can only co-exist peacefully by mutual respect.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_10512\"  width=\"696\" height=\"391\"  data-origwidth=\"696\" data-origheight=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1qcTgQv_ICA?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.hamslive.com\/news\/2022\/05\/im-human-right-anti-conversion-laws-in-india-criminalizing-christianity\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christians are harassed in Asaralli Village in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra, forced to say Jai Shri Ram and put tikkas.
