Absolutely nothing wrong with it, live with and God be with you. I'm not a Christian but I've learnt a lot about it and have compared to my upbringing which is a mix of Hindu/Buddhist. Nobody is perfect, every religion has its own sin. But for the "greater good of the society", I'm favoring Christianity. I'm impressed by the practicality of the faith, Christian are progressive and realistic. I can tell you this from my experience that Judeo Christian values are far superior than us, period. Their teaching is more fruitful to build a society and hence Christian nations flourish.You will be surprised how much I hated Christian while growing up, all taught by my grand father and my family. But the fact they never knew anything about it, just their insecurities made them to say all the lies and breed hate within me. They were so wrong. The truth is very different. I bullied one of my friend all my life who was a Christian convert through his missionary, and made his life miserable just because of his faith. Shame on me. Few years back, I called him and apologized him. He was stunned and happy. I promised that I'll make some donation to some missionaries when I take a trip back to Nepal.


Hinduism is full of ritual and too mythological, non realistic teaching that aren't any use to this modern society. It is too contained and non practical, old and stale. Most teaching are vague and nobody follows through. Buddhism is selfish and self oriented. Meditation, nirvana and all the deep philosophical teaching are great on books, nothing practical in this era. It is all about you and you, nothing about the person next to you. None of these provided me the answer of why we're so backward and why does my God not help my nation to rise up.


It's your life. Choose what you want. Just because your ancestor followed a certain trail, does not mean you'll have to live walk on it when you're comfortable with driving on a paved road. New day calls for new changes. I don't know how you'll deal with your parents, everybody has their own story. But I can tell you this for sure that there are many new Nepali who will support regardless of your faith.


Good luck.


Jai Nepal.
