I have heard your argument too often from outsiders but never from anyone who actually studied in these schools. Luckily, I don't know any queen sympathizer among my friends who passed out from Jesuit institutions neither do I know anyone who converted.
One thing I do know is that their schooling helped them to get jobs and get out of poverty when the software revolution happened.
I am not well versed in European history but common sense tells me a conversion collusion between the protestant British Queen and Catholic Jesuits has more probability to be a fiction.
- naruvimama 5y agoMy only point is the Christian schools or missions are not deserving of any of the praises you heap on them. Their contribution to the actual school is 0. In fact it legitimizes their continuing hold of land and wealth grabbed from the natives and temples for a "good cause" Colleges like Loyola in Chennai built on temple land manufacture derascinated Hindu hating Indians who go on to work in media, bureaucracy and judiciary and it does have a substantial negative impact, especially in a country trying to decolonise.
