Who Was St. Francis Xavier?

Our university's patron saint, Francis Xavier, was born on April 7 in present-day Spain!
An early companion of St. Ignatius of Loyola, he was one of the first seven Jesuits who took vows of poverty and chastity at Montmartre, Paris in 1534.

So mentioning Goa and india was off the subject

[@tushkoli]

Wasn't this wicked fellow responsible for bringing inquisition to Goa, which lasted for more than 300 years and was one of the worst acts of barbarity and cruelty and forceful conversions of Goan people?

[@dharmikrakshak8340]

His famous statement is “we can’t convert all Hindu to Christianism Brahmin are biggest obstacle” . He started Brahmin bashing .

I have read his letters to Rodrigues, Joao-III of Portugal, etc by Sheppard.
