CHRISTIANITY MAY STOP CONVERSION FROM OTHER RELIGIONS

According to Christianity everything is created by God. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the Word." (John 1:1) Here the Word has broad and extensive meaning. The 'Word' denotes God the unseen One, Christ the God with flesh and blood and everything that is in the whole universe. Hinduism says that the universe was created by Brahma out of himself. That is, all that is seen and unseen in the universe is created by Brahma and all those are He Himself. Now, if we get into the modern science, The Big Bang theory is the widely accepted theory of the creation of the universe. It says that at the beginning of the time a tiny particle exploded and all that is found in the entire universe including time, space and matter was  brought out from this tiny particle.

If we closely look at these three theories of origin we can find that all three say the same things except the name of the source. Christianity says about the Word as the origin. Word denotes, life, soul, wisdom, intelligence and God. In Hinduism we may replace the Word with Brahma and in science with Tiny Particle.  When man is created by one source, the purpose of creation and the way to achieve the purpose is predetermined and the mode is pre-set. There may be many who do not appreciate that every action and it's result are predetermined. 

Neither Word nor Brahma nor The Tiny Particle created any religion or presented any particular God for man. Bible says about the end in John 14:20. "On that day you will realise that I am in my Father, and you are in me and I am in you."  According to this verse finally man will confluence with God. According to Hinduism, "At the end of the present Kali Yuga, when virtue and Dharma have disappeared and the world is ruled by the unjust, Kalki will appear to destroy the wicked and to usher in a new age.".And now we may find that Hinduism too says that after this world a new world will be opened for man. When we get into the The Big Bang Theory after the early explosion the universe is continuously expanding. According to the widely approved scientific theories this expansion of the universe will come to a standstill at some point of time. The return may start from there and continue for millions of years or may be the equal time of the expansion. Finally the contraction will reach the point of the Tiny Particle. The whole universe including man will end up in a tiny particle. But the journey will not end at the zero point of time, space and matter. The universe will continue to contract/expand beyond that point. That will be a different world, must be the world we call heaven.

Any religion or any particular God is not found in any three narrations. According to three basic principles every good and bad will end up in the final point. After this point towards the unseen and unheard other side all will remain good only. In a simple explanation, the point of the Tiny Particle is the zero point and on the other two sides there must be two worlds/universe. The one in which we are living is the negative world or hell and the unseen other world is positive world or heaven. Competition, anger, hatred and destruction make this world full of pain and sorrow and thus become the negative world or hell. The other world is full of love, sharing, happiness, formulation, contentment and peace make it positive world or heaven. In the unimaginable long run it must be a never-ending process.

If this belief is appears to have genuineness in it, anyone taking birth as a Christian, Hindu or in any other religions is a natural choice for any reason or prehistory. Another person should not influence to change it. In Bible Jesus says that such change shall be  done by Himself. In John 10:16 it says, "And I have other sheep that are not of this fold, and I must lead them. They shall hear my voice, and there shall be one sheepfold and one shepherd." It simply says that there is only one Creator for all creation. Whereas in Hinduism, according to a Vedic expression God or Truth is one and wise people refer to it by many names. Fundamentally both Christianity and Hinduism say the same thing about God and religion. However the hierarchy or the vedic scholars of Christianity and Hinduism and such leadership with varied interests have promoted the term 'Conversion' to bring in more people to their respective religions. As such under the prevailing atmosphere in India all religions should take decisions to stop conversion of people from other religions to their religion. The Catholic leadership may come out with their proclamation saying that no more conversion shall be allowed in Catholic Church in India. This may ease out the long discussed issue in many religions in India.
