Well, what I would have done was maybe talked with the Hindu priest afterwards if I could and ask about his faith, and witness to him if he wanted. I don't know how Jesus would react, but I think he might have stayed silent then witnessed to the guy afterwards. Because I think that priest was left with a sour taste from those Christians. But who knows, God may have told him to drop his ways during his prayer and start worshiping the real God. That is if you believe that.
...and if you believe that, you're a little crazy.

I understand this desire to convert, but "witnessing" to a priest of a different religion is like a Mormon missionary trying to convert a pastor.
My point was these "Christians" were so inclined to interrupt the poor the guy and mention Jesus being the only God. What an effective way to witness to someone, but if you're going to do it, do it after he is done and in a peaceful manner. But I said I'd witness to him if he wanted to, as in if he was open about what I believe in. I wouldn't press it on him if he didn't want to talk about it. Those "Christians" however probably didn't care much about the guy's salvation, but were only there to heckle the guy and rub it in his face.
That makes more sense then.  I'm not sure why he'd want you to witness to him, but when you put it in this light, it sounds more tolerant.

Him and I (or whoever) won't know unless someone does. None come to God but by the Father. But, I'd just like while he is a priest, he is less likely to converted because of it, which is why it should be more of a concern. I'd rather witness to a dieing man than a young healthy teenager if I had to choose.
