Anti-conversion propaganda thrives on misrepresentation of the idea of freedom of conscience. It is a serious issue for a democracy as it snatches people’s right to make informed choices.
The movie “The Word and the Teacher” celebrates the life and works of the German missionary Ferdinand Kittel, who was a great champion of the Kannada language. If you live in Bangalore, you have the chance to watch the film and interact with the director.

Potholes and bad roads around Electronic City phase2 is a torture. The road leading to EISB from the market is in such bad condition. Any deadline for fixing this road sir? @DKShivakumar@DrCNManjunath @Bbmpcares
First, the Progressive Bangaloreans, then the crony capitalists and currently the fundamentalist Bengaluru Sena who promised to fix the traffic problem have left Bangalore unlivable. #Satire#indianpolitics#worldviews https://t.co/LKLCHp2gDa
“And remember what the punishment was in Isaiah 6:9-10: God said, “Do you like idols? If you like them so much, then I am going to make you become like them: idols cannot see, hear, or understand, nor do they have any spiritual life, and you are going to become as spiritually insensitive and inanimate as the idols that you worship.” Now, Israel of Jesus’ day was becoming as spiritually dead as the human-made, stale, empty tradition to which they had committed themselves. Their dead tradition was as empty of life as were the “whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness,” Excerpt From We Become What We Worship: A Biblical Theology of Idolatry G. K. Beale
@ahc@Tish_H_Warren I could not read the article as it is behind pay wall, but is it between online and in-person church? If yes, are there no other options to build the body of Christ?. I asked myself this question "What is your church like between Monday to Saturday? https://t.co/uBoN4wxLQy
@AshishAlexander@tmkrishna Artists need help from marketers, legal, accounts, logistics etc. A healthy ecosystem can help artists build this fans base that can support them with money, time and expertise.
@AshishAlexander@tmkrishna "1000 true fans" is an other successful model. Patreon is built on it. Many artists are benefited through Patreon in the West. The idea is that every artist need just 1000 true fans who are willing to give $10 a month. What I noticed is, artists don't just need $ but also experts
@AshishAlexander@tmkrishna In India we don't have a functional ecosystem for artists or creative folks to thrive. We need Government, businesses and NGO to join hands in developing creative capital for our country. It is critical for development of our country.
@AshishAlexander@tmkrishna I could not read the article as it is paid article but yes this is a serious crisis especially for performing artists during covid. Not just rural but artists in Mumbai needed money for rations and rents. Many artists volunteered to help. Not just MGNREGA much more needed

I went to a christian school, we recited christian prayers, celebrated christmas and would visit the church to pray before exams but guess what..none of us got converted!
