| Jumpin said: These people aren't really to be identified as Christians - they should be identified as superstitious people. Not all superstitious people are Christians, and not all Christians are superstitious. In fact, these superstitious Christians are a very small minority that just happen to be taken seriously by the American media which still relies on the primitive conservative Christian viewpoint. "Oriental demon" - that should be evidence enough of ignorance; just like superstition. |
Such individuals like that will generally only speak about foreign cultures primarily out of either fear, like they are scouts on a tower, looking for evil to warn their tribe about, or for cheerleadering and attempts to convert people. I recall one story where someone in a book writes how the Karen people of Asia were waiting for someone to tell them a story about a lost book. Of COURSE that lost book was the Bible, so BLAM, they were converted to the Christian faith. I recall emailing someone familar with the Karen people about the story, and they heard nothing of it.
