Re: God Locator
Christianity flourishes in all cultures and in all geographic locations.
So do Hindu and Islam.

Re: God Locator
Phat was answering the accusation that Christianity is culture bound.
Yes, Faith, I know. Phat's use of the word "culture" was misplaced. All religion is culture-bound. The "culture" in question may be small (village, neighborhood, family) but most people grow up believing the religion this "culture" force fed them in childhood rather than by feat of individual intellect. Thus, in every larger "culture," as per Phat's usage, every religion thrives in all cultures and in all geographic locations. And they are all still culture-bound.
