Christianity is growing in Asia but receding in America and Europe. Islam is the religion having the most people who want to convert - mostly to Christianity. I believe that ISIS and other hardline Muslim movements are largely a reaction to risk of an Islam implosion.

Hindu and Buddhist population is stable to negative.

I would say net net both Islam and Christianity are gaining in adherents. BUT Islam is far more fragile compared to Christianity. A bulk move from Islam to Christianity is quite possible,

In the short term Christianity seems to be the gainer. In the long term - Hinduism will be the gainer as Christians convert to Hinduism.

Organizations like New York Times are highly political - you can call it mouthpiece of the empire. This article has a remarkable lack of condemnation for people who executed this massacre.

All Abrahamic religions are political religions where violence is only a means to an end.

The empire will condemn NewJeaLand louder than SriLanka; though loss of life is greater in Sri Lanka. As Sri Lanka serves its purpose while Newjealand does not.

I have no hard statistics at this time but there is a significant effort to lure Asians into Christian fold. Most of this will come from Muslim population.

Not very silent - Guardian, WAPO - all pushing same narrative
"<Insert choice of Abrahamic religion> is the most persecuted" is the way they promote their religions. I wouldn't worry since they've been doing this shit for millenia now.

Try as they might, no one is going to attack the largest democracy on behalf of Christians. We need to check the Missionaries on a grassroots level. Defund Abrahamic religions and stop subsidizing them. Promote Dharmic religions that originated in India.

India sent alerts to Sri Lanka about possible terror attack after NIA probe into IS module targeting south Indian leaders

https://www.firstpost.com/india/ind...e-targeting-south-indian-leaders-6510371.html

During investigation, the probe team had stumbled upon videos of National Thowheed Jamaat (NTJ) leader Zahran Hashim, which was indicative of a terror attack on the Indian High Commission in Colombo.

After further investigation which included cyber trailing of some of the accounts associated with the IS, the central security agencies shared an input with their Lankan counterparts about the churches being the likely target of the ISIS module, they said.

WTH You Fools!!!!!!!!!!!! So many lives could have been saved!!!!!!

Many Hindus got killed too, yet no one talks about them.

Look at Joshua Project. Heck, they have a thing called 5-40 window or something. According to them, vast amounts of people live between 5°N to 40°N who aren't Christians (India, China, Japan) and it's their goal to Christianised them

I agree. Again I lack hard data but Hindu and Buddhist are facing slight decline, not a major decline.
Islam is growing (due to natural increase in population) but it is bursting at the seams. I can say safely that Islam faces mass conversion to Christianity.

It is very strange that the Sanskrit word "Isha" becomes the root of half of the problems of the world / humanity when taken out of the depth of Vedant contemplative framework.

Isha, Sanskrit word for "Ishwara" - the formless God becomes Isha, Ishu, Josua etc of Christianity and wrecks havoc on humanity so far removed from the intended use if Isha under Hinduism. What a strange thing... Name is Hindu but all other things are Abrahamic - his being a Massiha - the massanger to begin with militates aginst very basics of Vedanta philosophy wherein Isha is :

ईशावास्यं इदं सर्वं यत् किञ्च जगत्यां जगत।
तेन त्यक्तेन भुञ्जिथाः मा गृधः कस्य स्विद् धनम् ॥१॥

Isha is everywhere and not only in Jerusalem !!

any idea who introduced the christ church angle into this incident? was it CNN or NY times or somebody else altogether...
It was just some inside intel from those captured (I think) that the jihadi scum were enraged at the Churchchrist shootings...........but yes, CNN & others started spinning that as the foundational reason.....but other experts quickly beat them on the head that such planning cannot happen so quickly!

ISIS statement


NIA regularly arresting(14 jihadi may be in one city) ISIS terrorists in India too but presstitutes still didn't found religion of all terrorists unlike fake Sadhvi Pragya case.

Some idiots who blames poverty&madrassas for radicalization but in reality......

Two Moslem brothers who blew themselves up in Sri Lanka Terror Attack were sons of a wealthy Colombo spice trader.
.This is the level of radicalisation of rich & educated muslims..Where is desert cult leading to? If not challenged, they will annihilate all!

Yes. Poverty has never been associated with Islamic jihad! It was always the well educated (and well read of Quran) that go on the demonic path.

It's worthy of mention that the Islamic ideology for the creation of Pakistan was concocted by the highly educated folks of UP/Bihar......and they all left for Paki land soon after to sow the roots for India-hating, islamic state of Pakistan..........only to be treated like shit by the less educated Pakjabis :)

Sri Lanka’s prime minister, Ranil Wickremesinghe, warned that several suspects armed with explosives had yet to be found.
Wickremesinghe said there were more explosives and militants “out there”, and confirmed reports there had been a failed attack against a fourth major hotel, and that the Indian embassy was also a possible target.
The warnings – made two weeks before the attacks, with possibly a further communication about a potential threat just hours before the blasts – appears to have been based on Indian agencies’ interrogations of Isis sympathisers arrested late last year in the southern state of Tamil Nadu.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...cks-security-overhaul-bombers-still-free-isis

They had been warned even earlier by India that the group, also known by the spelling National Thowheed Jama’ath, was plotting church attacks
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/22/world/asia/ntj-warning-sri-lanka-government.html



The President acknowledged that the government had information about the local terrorist group since 2017, but said there was insufficient evidence to take legal action against its members.

India provided the Sri Lankans with specific warnings about threats, even naming the group and its ringleader, in the days before the attack, Sri Lankan officials said.

My take on it
Islamists want to take revenge on Christians regarding Christ church shooting in New Zealand on previous month, Of-course they want to attack West but that is highly impossible now due to their high security alert, so they chose soft target Srilanka for revenge .That is why they selected 3 churches and 3 hotels(mostly foreigners stay) to send a message to western/Christians.
The Christchurch mosque massacre were on the March 15th , less than 6 weeks from the Sri Lanka attacks.

I'd tend to think that an operation of this scale (reports of 9 suicide bombers) , takes a degree of planning and organization and would take longer than 6 weeks.

Basically, I'm stating is that the Christchurch massacre may have been the public justification for this by Islamists, but this action was probably in the pipeline for a while longer.

For now i haven't seen statements from ISIS or bombers themselves talking about the bombing as a revenge for christ church. Christ church angle was introduced by media...
