If someone doesn't believe (or tolerate) the concept of reincarnation, the Hare Krishna movement won't make a lot of sense to them.
The International Society For Krishna Consciousness exists to encourage unsuccessful transcendentalists to pursue the highest expression of God consciousness, Krishna Consciousness.
We will preach to anyone willing to listen, we will answer all pertinent questions, but it's a waste of time to debate a hostile party who cannot tolerate our regulative principles.
The four regulative principles are:
No meat, fish, or eggs. Meat eating destroys mercy.
No intoxication. Intoxication destroys discipline.
No gambling. Gambling destroys honesty.
No illicit sex. Illicit sex destroys cleanliness.
These principles are yogic principles, any sincere seeker is automatically attracted to them.
We understand that spiritual advancement is a continuum, that complete surrender to the Supreme Personality may take many, many births to achieve.
I suggest that any critic of ISKCON is an atheist opposed to any religious pursuit, and any restrictions of any religion. They just reserve their most extreme vitriol for ISKCON.
