It is not only in Koodankulam, they have been active against power plants at various locations in tamilnadu.
Let the Priests run the church and keep off from such activities.They have been filing petitions at various tribunals. Inciting the local fishermen folks. Let them keep themselves to the church and use the money for upliftment of the poor , instead of paying to politicians.
In case these people are attacked the next time, even the christians will not support these priests.

Proganda against protesters is to divide peoples opinion by

This new propaganda that western countries are behind the anti nuclear protests through church is created to divide people's opinion. A classic example of divide and rule.

How many dollars are you getting to organize the protests?

Sorry, I do not believe in taking cash to support national interest. Unlike you, my loyalty does not lie with the church. It lies with my nation.

western countries are democracies and act the way India does. there are different lobbying groups with different political intents. beyond doubt, some of them are benefactors of church and some others have a interest against nuclear energy. these two groups have come together for an unholy cause

LOOKER? LOOK WHO IS SUPORTING CHURCH? IT IS A ploy BY CHURCH TO DIVIDE PEOPLE TO GET THEIR ATTENTION?
*When this correspondent asked Fr Jaikumar about his support for the protestors, he said, "I have to support whatever my flock desires."
However, most people feel that it is the other way round. For instance, the fishermen are protesting the plant because they say the parish priest has asked them to do so.*
This pretty much sums up jayakumars and udaykumars intellectual capability and the people like you that supports them blindly
Ever wondered how these fishermen are surviving without going to fish, but spending their time in protests? To my knowledge, fishing in India is not a luxurious job and fishermen are seldom rich enough to take care of themselves and their family without actually going to fish.

Exactly. The church has decided to be idiotic and so no matter how many experts try to convince it, the church will not change its position.

Protesters may not be that many so why don't you do a religion wise breakdown of protesters and the people in the places where the the protesters are from to see if dispropotionate participation from church?
