Senator Chuck Grassley is very concerned about persecution of a Christian leader in India.

He is less concerned about the various charges of abuse leveled at the man.

"Faiz Rehman, who ran the Good News India Dream Centre shelter in Dhenkanal district, was arrested in December last year over allegations by inmates that he physically and sexually tortured them. The centre housed 87 children aged between five and 16. An official described the place as 'a house of horror.'"

What I read about the religion forum lead me to believe that I should not have posted my content there.

About 20 years ago, I as asked to contribute to a wannabe Christian missionary's planned trip to India to convert the people there to Christianity. I said I would contribute an amount equal the amount they contributed to Hindu missionaries to come to America to convert Americans to Hinduism.

The amount of my prospective contribution was never disclosed to me.
