Criticism of Christian evangelism among India's indigenous communities

Original: I'd say this is extremely heavy handed...if it were anywhere except # india There are tiny, indigenous communities in #

A debate is unfolding over Christian missionary activity directed at small indigenous communities in India that still preserve ancient Proto-Indo-European language and religious traditions. One critic calls the evangelism extremely heavy handed, while suggesting that such practices are, regrettably, well documented historically. The discussion touches on concerns that conversion efforts could erase rare cultural and linguistic heritage before it is recorded or protected.

Why now: Renewed attention to religious conversion controversies in India and the fate of vulnerable indigenous traditions.
