Thanks for the story. Wish we knew more of our shared history with the ME. Maybe if we succeed in getting rid of the facsists that now rule that part of the world, a new era of exchange and understanding can come about. I pray it's true.

I understand there is an ancient "cult of Mary" existing in Afghanistan and India. Anyone know something about that?

St. Thomas (the Apostle) supposedly evangelized India, so there is definitely a cult of the Virgin that has existed there since very early on. I don't know about Afghanistan, though.

IIRC there is also a group out there that are adherents of John the Baptist.

Shoot, meant to ask if you mean Mary Magdalene?
