A new pinglist, so if you're interested.....

Yes, this is in southwestern Asia....but probably won't be picked up by the Middle East pinglists.

pan-Asia pinglist.*
This pinglist covers a broad range of topics relating to Asia: culture, current events, politics, science, history, arts, etc.

Warning: This could be a moderate/high volume pinglist.

Note: This pinglist generally does not cover topics pertaining to soutwestern Asia (the Middle East); there are already a couple of moderate volume pinglists for that region of the world.

Ping if you see a pertinent thread.

*To get on or off this list, freepmail with the subjects Asia on or Asia off .
No message is necessary.

To get on or get off this pinglist, freepmail here, with the appropriate subject.

There is also a:
John 3:16 (New King James Version): "16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
This pinglist can terminate at any time, without notice.

"from Libya and Egypt to India, from the Danube to the Indus , from the Caucasus Mountains to the Asiatic Steppes and from the Aral Sea to the Persian Gulf to work together with Persian architects to create something never before seen yet unmistakably Persian."

From all over the world to make something distinctly American.

Disagree with Persepolis being the religious center, but interesting article.

Anyone interested in the ancient civilizations who is visiting Chicago should go by the Oriental Institute down on the UofC campus. Fantastic displays from Babylon, Persia and Eygpt are there.

The Persian Empire fell to Alexander and Persepolis was burned to the ground. Sometimes, history has the final word on man's intentions.
