Algeria last week banned evangelization of Muslims because of the success of such efforts among the indigenous Berbers in the east of the country (hat tip to Dhimmi Watch). This suggests a potentially fruitful strategy for evangelizing Muslims — concentrate on Muslim ethnic groups oppressed by other Muslims, like the remaining Berbers in north Africa and the Kurds in Turkey. One way a faith can get a hearing is if it allows an oppressed people to express itself — this is one reason Christianity has been so successful in Korea, where it became a way to express Korean-ness against the Japanese occupiers, and why Christianity has had such slow going in China (though it’s picking up speed finally), where it was long seen as the oppressors’ faith. I send money to one group that evangelizes Muslims and get material from others, but I’ve not seen this as a conscious strategy.
