was Christianity taken to China 1900 years ago? A form of Christianity did reach China after sweeping through Syria, Iraq, Iran, India, and Afghanistan. It was popular until Islam.

Nestorian/Syrian. The Syrian-Chaldean church was very very big in what is now Iraq and Iran and Syria until the advent of the moon cult

?You talking about Nestorians, correct? Well, they would have come a bit later -- around 300 AD. Many of Genghis Khan's army were Nestorian Christians and the Persian Church was Nestorian.
