Because minorities have lesser rights and can be easily dominated by majority? So, is the fear in today's minorities about being cast aside by the majority justified then? Think about it.
Why are you being a soldier of your religion? Isn't religion just a belief? If our gods are true then will they become false if Hindus become less in number? Are you scared that they will force you to convert to their religion if they are in greater numbers? And what exactly will that change for you? That you will have to eat beef or pork or something? If you sign a paper claiming to be a muslim but pray in your heart to Shiv or Krishna then are you really a Muslim? Could they convert you? No. If someone doesn't want to change their religion, no one can force them. Because believing in something is as personal as it gets. No one can go inside someone's mind to see what they believe in or follow. Maybe you cannot practice it as such but Hinduism is not just about the practice of it, it's in the believing of it and living those ideals. That's why I call BS on these brainwashing tactics because nobody can forcefully convert anyone. You cannot convert someone's heart if they don't want to do it. So why be scared of it? Why try to prevent it? If someone feels so weakly about Hinduism that they can convert for money or other things then let them do it. How does it matter? I think it only matters in the legal hassles that come with some religion or some societal rules otherwise not really. If they can change laws to make all religions the same in the law's eyes, I think it won't make one bit of a difference that who is converting who.
