Hindus fight Christians, Muslims fight Hindus...Christians fight, Jews fight, and so do the Buddhists. When are we ever going to stop and ponder? If at all.

Churches burnt in India


BHUBANESWAR, Sept 1: Mobs burnt at least four more churches as religious violence appeared to spread in Orissa.

Thousands of people, mostly Christians, have taken shelter in makeshift camps in the Indian state, where mobs went on the rampage last week after a Hindu leader was killed. Mobs set fire to four churches in the districts of Koraput and Rayagada, Orissa’s director general of police Gopal Chandra Nanda said.

Two churches and several houses were also burnt in the Kandhamal district.—Reuters
