The News From Mongolia

Just two items from Mongolia. (Hey, don’t say we don’t keep you

well-informed.) First, the BBC reports that Christianity is spreading like

wildfire among the yurts (You need to read

down a bit to get to the stuff about Christianity.) No news on whether they

are ordaining any gay bishops, though. Second, my Mongolia Guy (no kidding)

tells me that Mongolia has soldiers in Iraq with the US. He adds: “I’ve

always wondered how they are seen, seeing as how ‘they’re just like the

Mongols’ is always the worst thing Arab opponents can say against the US.”

{Mesopotamia endured a very nasty ravage by Genghis & his lads back in the

13th century.)
