Grandma Ens: Orphans, AIDS and Jesus in Cambodia

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

baptist is one of the circa 33,000 sects of christianity but you don't convert people to christianity by sending bibles to those that already have them & frequent one of the other circa 32,999 sects churches.

85% is circa 50/50 protestant/catholic with islam almost all the balance at 14%

1% includes a group of schools run/funded by humanists/atheists & I enjoy following the schools success/growth - fyi :

I agree & replied knowing Ugandas religion &history through the school I linked to

my point :
-country is 85% christian
-why send bibles to christians to convert them to christianity

christian sects don't target each other they target other religions/no-religion which brings us full circle back to the grandma of the topic here in buddhist lands
funnily enough both nations share horrors of a brutal regime & colonial crap prior :facepalm:

Funny how we always stick the boot in on Christian organsiations. Sometimes they deserve, sometimes not, but where is all the Muslim Aid for Syrian refugees? how many refuges have muslim countries taken from Myanmar? you don't see massive airflifts from other religions or governments when the shit hits and they never get criticised?
