"The Commission is inquiring into the recent attacks on churches in Karnataka.
“Hindus believe in idol worship. So to attract them to Christianity, idol 
worship is performed in churches,” Menengis said.

During cross-examination, the priest said that “despite idol worship being 
prohibited in Bible, we have idol worship in churches.” “The duty of every 
Christian is to convert non-Christians to Christianity by any means,” the 
priest told the commission.

St James Church was attacked by miscreants on September 21, 2008.
The church is running co-education institutions, with classes from first to 
eight standard.

During cross-examination the priest confessed that “no girl students are 
permitted to use kumkum, bangles and wear flowers. In our institution, we 
have moral science textbook

But it does not contain texts regarding Holy Bible and Jesus,” the priest 
added.

The commission has requested the priest to submit the textbook to it.."
