Religion

Playing with fire

Running with the hare and hunting with the hounds is an idiom that summarises Pakistan’s consistent tryst with religiosity.

Religion in HK

The Vatican regards Hong Kong as a single diocese so it has only one bishop. Without mentioning President Xi Jinping or issuing any instructions or orders, the mainland speakers explained how Xi’s policy of “Sinicization” aligned with long-term Vatican policies of inculturation, in effect adapting Christianity in traditional, nonChristian cultures

Faith targeted

In the last few months, there have been 33 attacks on churches and Christian prayer halls - in Belagavi, Belur, Chitradurga, Hubballi and Mengaluru areas ~ even though the Constitution gives every citizen the right to practice and propagate one’s faith. Banning conversion will take away the freedom of the downtrodden and marginalised communities.

India’s partition on religious basis was a historic mistake: Rajnath

Rajnath was inaugurating ''Swarnim Vijay Parv'', an event commemorating the valour and professionalism of the armed forces and their contribution to the liberation of Bangladesh in the Indo-Pak 1971 war, at India Gate Lawns here. The event marks the culmination of year-long celebrations of 50 years of India's victory in the war.
