In the Buddhist system, during the religious services, the God Deva Loka is always invoked, and invited to descend upon the altars by the ringing of bells suspended in the pagodas. Obviously the bells used by Christians come to them directly from the Buddhist. The beads and rosaries have the same origin, and have been used by Buddhist monks for over 2400 years.
No Catholic, well versed as he might be in the mysterious symbolism of iconology would fail to understand the parallel between some Hindu Virgin icons and some shrines of the Virgin Mary, the mother of his God.
However the central dogmas of Christianity are concerned with the soul and the spirit, the sin against the spirit being the most critical sin. Jindal remains a staunch Hindu by placing the sins against the flesh and Sexual Abstinence at the highest level of his political agenda.
To the contrary Christians who believe in the immortality of the soul, therefore are advised to reproduce, motivated by love.
Charles Darwin and Karl Marx did not believe in the immortality of the soul. For them, survival is only possible in the species. Therefore their advice is to increase mass reproduction by fear of death.
A good example for mass reproduction motivated by fear of death is the chicken farm. By artificially inducing fear of death the rate of egg production does increase significantly.
Galatians 4, 28 to 31 "Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise. But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman." So then brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free."
