So, you want Krishna only for your wealth? According to you, to get wealth, you need Krishna, otherwise no need him.

Good point. However, wealth need not me financial at all. It could be spiritual? For which Krishna can be a path along with any other paths that you may chose.
Anyone who has a slightest contact with ISKCON will tell you that they preach how to love the Supreme Lord Krsna. In today\'s world this is more required

If Ford (or Das) found meaning of life certain path, that is his decision. Secularist will respect that. If he does not like Christianity, that is his choice; fine.
Proponents of secularism have problem when the State/Govt uses its might to impose certain religious belief/practice upon the people. If Nagpur is doing its job alone, fine; if Nagpur uses Delhi to impose its agenda, that becomes a problem.

I think we should leave it to Americans to address that matter. But isn't our govt also giving similar thing through 80G towards contribution to Society/Trust who may use this money for various activities? Issue is whether the govt is giving equal treatment to all Society/Trust irrespective of religion or whether Society/Trust of certain religion is discriminated. But this tax exemption to all the donors or all the Societies/Trusts is different from govt imposing religious belief/practices of one group on all.

Yes, unfortunately greatness of our own culture should come from outside, we cannot be vocal about it, whereas others are are very proud of their own.
