My Views on Freedom of Religion Laws

First, they convert and welcome people into God's family. Then, they stereotype, isolate, and wreck the new Christian's life. After this, they make fake stories and send them to their original religious group. Then, they mock the new Christian, saying, "God will help," and waste more of their time. The person is neither here nor there, treated mercilessly. Many may give up life; some may give up on eternal life, and others hang on by their fingernails only to notice that they fought and labored in vain. The day of the Lord is near! He will punish the wicked Christians before he holds other nations accountable. Let him who has ears hear!

 

If your community cannot care for new converts after they join you, don't convert them into a new faith. Once a person leaves their Hindu community, they join the new religious community. People believe and join the new faith. They lose many things and relationships. And, finally, they are left with nothing. After this, the new community denies them equal or fair treatment. Sometimes, the new community mistreats them and oppresses them. In such a scenario, where would the aggrieved person go? They are doubly persecuted. First, their original community persecutes them. Then, their new community oppresses them. Therefore, we need a new set of Central Government Freedom of Religion laws. If you can't take care of the converted, don't convert!

 

In this country, there are laws to protect the rights of the convertor. Articles 14, 25, 26, 27, and 28 contain laws related to religious liberty. Besides, there are many written and unwritten minority affairs laws. There's even a ministry called the minority affairs ministry. However, no law protects the rights, safety, and interests of the person who converts (the converted). Presently, if the community leaders feel to do so one day, they can expel Manoj Kumar without any consequences despite his 23 years of service to God. Where would this Manoj go for his rights? They say, "Go to God." The aggrieved Manoj Kumar prayed. And, God said, "Fight for laws to protect the rights of the new convert within the new community." When the doubly persecuted people complain to the government, the government must take stringent action against that religious community.

 

We need a central bill that mandates a legal record of every conversion so that the community the person joins cannot disown them easily. The new member has an equal right to the privileges and wealth of the community. They are an equal member. Does not the Bible say, "We are co-heirs with and in Christ? And, there is no Jew or Gentile, no Barbarian or slave, all are equal in Christ." Second, we must create laws to protect the rights of the new person within the new community. If they have grievances against the new community, they must be able to fight it legally. At present, the religious community will deny such people and say, "Get out." After that, the new person's life is completely ruined. The religious authorities must do things responsibly.

 

Religious groups must exercise their freedom with responsibility. If you want the freedom to preach, you must be responsible for treating the new Christian fairly. The traditional Freedom of Religion laws are against freedom of speech and choice. We must not stop people from preaching freely or choosing their faith freely. Let all people preach their faith. Let those who believe their message choose the way of life. However, after they believe, the people who lead them to the new faith must not force them to change their cultural matters like food (vegetarian or non-vegetarian), clothes (colorful or white), and language. Further, they must welcome the new person into the community with love and respect. The community must be liable if they mistreat or oppress the new believers.
