Lets face it ..It's nothing with the extremist components.
The Orthodox church is 'uncomfortable' with the ISKON activities and this is just a pretext.
The problem with these people is they take the Shrimad Gita literally as a book that preaches war. Can't fault them though for that coz that is how they approach their holy book too.
Somebody needs to drill inside their heads Shrimad Gita is not to be taken literally but rather metaphorically.The war in Shrimad Gita is not about war itself but the inner war between one's good and evil side.
Anyway I could not care less for this. We have 1 billion people who respect.Some foreigners who could not get the message does not reduce anything from what is arguably the greatest philosophical treatise available to mankind.
