Faith or Bust: India

We're a group of guys tired of being told to be normal. We can't be normal, we're Christians. And we're called to live our faith out loud. WE're going to live our lives Faith or Bust.

This summer we're heading to India to serve the poor and dying!

Retraction

I've come to realise that my statements were written out of frustration and hurt with the impotence of the Government of Orissa (etc.) and the violence supported by the BJP (and cronies) against Christians, in addition to the everyday hassels that make me feel more like a wallet for people to steal out of than as a person. I've also come to realise that the issue is more complex and my perceiving of it as a Hinduism issue was the result of it partly being an economic issue that is best described by the Caste system and its attempts to force bonded labor.

Some people use caste and religion to make others do their bidding and to profit off of them unjustly. They take advantage of and encourage the ignorance of others.

Though I do have a limited number of Hindu friends here, those that I do have are acutally quite respectable and indeed put many Christians in the states to shame on the scales of virtue and morality.
