Why the christoterrorist government of India minted coins with the christian cross on it:

Joseph McCabe wrote that Constantine's disproved Labarum event (the alleged vision he saw in the sky of the Greek cross symbol - the Chi Ro, I think - along with the words "In this sign you will conquer") when he was on his way to battle and which then reappeared to him in a dream -
McCabe wrote that this event led to Constantine's public *conversion*. (His *baptism* on the other hand occurred much later, on his deathbed - in order to absolve him from all his murderous christian crimes until that point.)
Anyway, even though his vision of the labarum was fiction, Constantine minted coins with the sign on them after his conversion (that is, after this <b>crypto</b> finally declared his christianism in public). The historic minting of these coins at this point in time was not due to that fictional labarum vision which historians say never happened.
Constantine's conversion and the cross appearing on the coins at this juncture was doubtless because he was told by his christian advisers that now was the time to do so:
- time to publicly reveal his leanings toward the evil religion his mad mother Helena had already brought him up in.
- time to start taking over the empire for his jeebus and christianism.
<b>Thus Constantine's coins actually revealed christianism's intentions for the Empire.</b>
The Natural Traditionalist Greco-Romans did not know that with this, the christian Constantine, his mum, the church and christians had declared war on them. They did not know what the coins meant to their Traditions. Hindus can look at history for a precedent. Hindus have the ability to know better and to anticipate christianist intentions for Hindu Bharatam.
I give up trying to explain. Here's McCabe:

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Â Â It was the year 312. All the blood of all the martyrs had converted only a small fraction of the Roman world, and a recent persecution had made apostates of ninety-nine in a hundred of those.
  At that moment a fiery and unscrupulous, but very vigorous and ambitious man named Constantine, son of a rural barmaid who had dallied with a Roman officer, was leading a great army across Italy to meet his rival for the sovereignty of the world. Suddenly he saw, flaming on the heavens, the Greek monogram (the labarum) of Christ, and, as if to prevent any nonsense about an ocular illusion, the words: "In this sign thou shalt conquer."
  As is common in the case of these stupendous and unmistakable miracles, Constantine did not fall on his knees, but merely wondered. A second vision, during the night, informed him that this monogram referred to Christ; with whose religion and followers he had been familiar for ten years at least. <b>After these two miracles he opined that Christianity was worth inquiring into. He inquired, was converted; and the real Christian Era opened. At Christ in a manger Greeks and Romans had mocked. By an emperor in the purple, with the police and soldiers behind him, their eyes were opened.</b>
