A letter to the editor appeared in today's WSJ from a "former evangelical Christian and convert to the ancient Orthodox Christian faith" regarding Christian outreach in Iraq. The author, to his credit gives some information on the ancient roots of Christianity in Iraq, and criticizes those in the evangelical outreach who seem "blithely unaware" of this history.
He mentions, however that "[Iraqi Christians] largely belong to one or another of the Orthodox or Coptic Churches, though there are also some 'Eastern-Rite' Roman Catholics."
Where do they get this stuff, and where are the editors?
