To Dautari and Manab, The main reason we treat Christians as 2nd class is because of their history. Couple hundred yrs ago those very Christians tried to enter Nepal as priests and tried to colonize us. We as a country have not been able to trust them fully since then. Their motive to come to our country has always been clouded in the past history. Any religion that tries to convert people into their religion has always been 2nd class religion. Its like asking Israel why they persecute muslims. Or even in the US if those Muslims, Hindu, Jewish, or Buddhists started converting people in the BIBLE BELT ...you think those religious right wing folks are going to keep quiet and let it happen ? Just like the christians do not like other religions coming to convert their people, Hindu's don't want christians coming to convert their fellow hindu worshipers. And for Andrew, You need to open your mind a bit. Taking Bible literally is injurious to health. Bible was written 100 yrs after it actually took place. It is not reliable. There is no proof that Jesus was god. The miracles is not logically reasonable(besides Jesus nobody has done it). The whole idea of forgiveness in Christianity is flawed. Whereas in hindism anb buddhism you are responsible for your actions(for every action there is reaction). And it will be on your Karma. Whereas the Christians can forget the whole thing by confessing(they think they are forgiven, and keep going back to do the same again and again). AND YOU WANT NEPALI SOCIETY OF FREE THOUGHT ? WELL YOU GOTTA LOTTA NERVE SAYING THAT WHAT US GOVERNMENT IS DOING TO HUMAN RIGHTS AND PERSONAL FREEDOM. WELL IF YOUR RELIGIOUS RIGHT IS GOING TO LET THE MUSLIMS ROAM FREE IN US AND CONVERT PEOPLE OF THEIR FREE WILL THEN WE WILL ALLOW THE CHRISTIANS TO DO THE SAME IN OUR COUNTRY.
