in every part of india. In the last 5 years over 200 churches have been fire bombed or shot up and over 4000 christians killed by militant hindu extremists. While it is less common in major cities and almost non existant against westerners india is one of the most dangerous countries in the world to be a convert.
Where is your data to back this up?
I know that as a fundamentalist you'll have a natural aversion to evidence, but come on, proof. Please.

Churches get bombed here, too. After all, everyone knows that if you don't belong to the same faith as the bomber does (Methodist, Catholic, Protestant, Lutheran, you name it), the bombees are going to Hell anyway.
When I was in India, there was absolutely no violence against Christians. I was in Kerala (Calicut), then went to Mangalore, Bangalore and Mumbai. You would find Christian churches all over that didn't even have graffiti on them! Nuns would walk around in full habits with huge rosaries around their waists and priests could be seen strolling about with no problems. The cows didn't even bother them.

voice of the martyrs search for india. There are thousands of sites dedicated to the subject if you bother to google it but my main sources are various news sites when things happen. However my point isn't about the persecution of christians it's that christians are unlikely to stir up extremism in relation to the eclipse when they are the likely targets for violence.
