On the day of Judgement Jesus Christ will refuse you send you back, beucase you are hire of Paul not Jesus (PBUH). Muslims are the true hire of Christ and his teachings!

And as an Afghan I want American military to be out of my country and God willing Afghanistan will be America's last adventure. Even a recent report by your own military says that most in East and South of Afghainstan want Taliban more then American military that is 23 million people. Your is an example of typical american exceptionalism; "How can people not wants us, we are number one, blah blah blah" Let me tell you, people not only don't want you they hate your culture, your way of living, its expensive on every human level to a degree that you aught not to be considered human. You waste, you have no honor, you have no restraint, you have no family and your religion and God is limited to one day in church at best. So please keep your every thing to your self, we don't want these negative moderanization, your stealth abuse of humanity and aminals, your destruction of environment and your a mass every thing.

If you want to know more about Nuristan visit Dr. Richard Strands Nuristan Site on the Web for he is the World’s most knowledgeable person on Nuristan more so than the Nuristanis themselves. His knowledge on the peoples of Nuristan, their language, their culture, and their history are unsurpassed. There is still an enclave of the former Nuristani peoples in Chitral and they still practice a mixture of animism/Hinduism. In Barg-e Matal they still make wine but they keep the fact hidden as it would mean their death with some in the Islamic faith. In Wama they still have ancient Greek looking vats where their ancestors use to stomp the grapes to make into wine. As for as tolerance goes, you have no clue, the Nuristani peoples prior to their conversion in 1895 would take Muslim heads and put them on a wall erected in the area which is now called Kaligush. This was done as a deterrent to any Muslims who might think about trying to move north into their area. When they were betrayed in 1895 by a fifth columnist they were conquered and forced to convert to Islam by the sword so much for tolerance on either side. The ancestors of the Nuristani peoples in Chitral are allowed to stay animist at a price. Their women (not all) are used by the Muslim men in the southern parts of the North -Western territory of Pakistan as prostitutes. You speak of tolerance go ask any Christian in the Middle East if he believes the Muslims are tolerant. You know not of what you speak.

According to "Greeks in India," the Nysa had a Greek-style republic, although with aristocratic rulers rather than the democracy common today. They apparently were excellent winemakers until recently. At least until the 1960s, in Pakistan there were a group of people near Chitral who practiced animism. I doubt that is still the case but I could be wrong. The Greek ancestry might help explain the appearance of the Afghans with fair skin. I think the diversity even in the strictest regions in the world shows that there should be tolerance, particularly toward those of differing faiths. There is a history of religious tolerance in this area if you go back far enough.

Have you ever been to Afghanistan? If you become a Christian there and you were a Muslim before, you are a dead man. The US military has done more to help the people in that country than any one in history. It is idiot liberals such as you who are the biggest impediment to the Gospel being preached anywhere. Everyone of my Muslim interpreters knew I was a Christian in Afghanistan and when I did not show up for Iftar on the third day of Ramadan they asked me why I did not come and I told them because they did not invite me that night and they replied "Bill you are not like the rest your are always welcome." It is the politically correct crowd who has done more to harm the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ than any misstep of the US Military, any time, anywhere. John, you mean well but you are wrong. I have never once apologized for the actions of the US in any Islamic country I have served in whether Bosnia, Iraq, or Afghanistan and I have Muslim friends in all three. I have Muslim friends from Egypt, as well as Syria, and Jordan. There is no collective guilt for me to ask forgiveness of because I was not there for any of the wrongs which you imply have occurred. Have there been wrongs committed by the West, of course there have as well as there have been wrongs committed by many from the Islamic nations. Do you know anything about Islam; have you ever read the Quran or the Hadith's? Do you know anything about sharia law and its workings? An Iraqi Christian (Chaldean) once told me "Bill that there is one Christian still remaining in one Muslim nation in the world today is a miracle of God”. If you know anything of History and how Islamic law is carried out within the Islamic world you would realize how true that statement is. Enough said, God is God and as all Christians know there is but one God who rules over all, He is the triune God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), three, yet one. Christ alone is King. zbogom Jedidiah you have no clue as to what you are talking about. Have you ever been to Afghanistan?

Let's get this straight, I find this site to be insulting and insensitive to Afghans and Muslims alike as it uses our beloved month of Ramadan as a tool to misguide us as well as the missionaries' blatant disregard for the culture and religion of the Afghan people. God, protect the Afghans and guide these missionaries to Islam, ameen. God, show Your True Self,ameen.

We are wondering where the information on the 2 Pashtun believers who risked their lives to bring the gospel to the Nuristani long ago, came from. We can't find it anywhere else. We'd really appreciate any more information you can give us on this for our study. We're doing a study on the Nuristani people for our Perspectives course.
