Since I pointed out the presence of other full previous translations, Christian Today has maintained an embarrassed silence while the Hindu has graciously published a correction. This latter myth is so fully swallowed that even Christian Today and the Madras Hindu have repeated these untruthful claims as fact. It is also taught in schools, that he translated the first Tamil Bible for Percival. It is further untruthfully claimed that Percival learnt his Tamil from Navalar. Peter Percival, particularly in revising an existing translation of the Tamil Bible, for the Saiva revivalist from Jaffna Arumuka Navalar. In this paper we discuss the claiming of much the accomplishments of the Methodist (later Anglo-Catholic) Missionary and Tamil scholar, The Rev. Thamotharampillai, one of the greatest Tamil scholars, despite whose baptismal records, Tamil school readers teach that he was a Hindu who pretended to be a Christian for privileges – and our children had to sit through this at Christian mission schools as if in a Nazi classroom! A case in point is that of our ancestor Rao Bahadur C.W. Thus anything good in Tamil must have Saivite inspiration. As we Tamils rightly accuse the Sinhalese of Sri Lanka of rewriting history and school texts to cast Tamils as invaders and the Sinhalese as settlers, it is good to ask if we Tamils too do not exhibit similar tendencies: particularly the idea that Tamil and Saivism are indivisible. Many Tamils demanding that Sri Lanka respect the rights of minorities were the very people who as supporters of the LTTE suppressed Tamil rights.

We Tamils of Sri Lanka were in the news as the UNHRC in March 2013 discussed and passed a resolution on minority rights and accountability over alleged war crimes against us.
