[KS] most Christian city in Asia

[Wayne Patterson]

Dear Ruediger --

	I too have seen this quote somewhere but, like you, cannot 
remember where I saw it.  But, the fact of the matter is that 
the statement is not true.  Manila would qualify as the most 
Christian (Catholic) city in Asia.

	Best,

	Wayne Patterson

Dear colleagues,

there is a quote I can't find anymore. I am sure that I read 
something
like "before 1945, Pyeongyang was the most Christian city in 
Asia",
referring to the percentage of Christians (protestants, I 
suppose?) among
the city's population. Who wrote this, and where?

Thanks for your help,

Ruediger
