There are probably more Christians in Afghanistan right now than there have been in a thousand years.

I hope they distribute Bibles everywhere. Preach, proselytize, too. Otherwise we will be condemned to repeat this again and again.

“What it did not show was the chaplain counseling the young sergeant that distributing the Bibles was against U.S. Central Command’s General Order No. 1,” the official said. The chaplain confiscated the Bibles. “As far as we know, none ever got off base.”

General Order No. 1 “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”

I think about 1000 years back the Buddhists had completely converted the Christians or chased them away from Afghanistan.

However, knowing their own history you find people with a mazouza on the door lintel, and an "all purpose" model mosque that has four minarets ~ each opening up to provide room for a candle. An incense burner is smack dab in the middle on top.

So much for conversions.
