Hi, I'm looking for answers

RE: Hi, I'm looking for answers
Theo,

What was your link supposed to show us? Could you quote something from it so we know why you linked it for us?

Here is one I found:

http://www.afghanistans.com/information/...ligion.htm

Quote:The strongest tie among these various groups is their Islamic religion. The overwhelming majority of Afghans (about 99 percent) are Muslims. About 84 percent of Afghan Muslims are Sunnites and about 15 percent are Shiites (mostly the Hazaras and Tajiks). Small groups of Hindus, Sikhs, Parsis, and Jews are scattered in the towns. Since the 1960s many Afghan Jews have been able to migrate to Israel.

Christians aren't mentioned, but even if they are represented, they would be a small part of the 1% that are not Muslim. Who knows why some people are convinced by a religion totally different from those around them, maybe they are masochists? Maybe they have heard the argument that religion is regional so they purposely select a religion to make some point? Your guess is as good as mine or Min's. The fact that 99% are Muslim's is proof that religion is regional.
