IF SOMALIS WERE PREDOMINANTLY CHRISTIAN

[Daacad90]

What if Somalia was Hindu?

Indians managed to spread Hinduism all the way to Bali, East Indonesia.

When I tell you I shuddered...

We'd be annexed fully by Ethiopia

It would probably get altered and the camel would probably be declared holy in ''Somali Hinduism'' and the Jubba and Shebelle would become holy rivers.

It would probably get altered and the camel would probably be declared holy in ''Somali Hinduism''.

We'd also be burning widows and throwing poo

HOW DIFFERENT DO YOU THINK OUR COMMUNITY WOULD BE IF WE WERE CHRISTIAN? HAS ANYBODY ELSE WONDERED?

Picking on Haiti as example is disingenuous because they have other issues but Yes generally non Muslim countries fare better if we are comparing apples to apples.

 

[Xasusi]

Imagine Somalis were a recognized Jewish group who were exiled.

Like the Ashkenazi and Sephardi.

God what a great world that would be.

 

[TheSayid]

we would be speaking amharic ?

 

[Xasusi]

we would be speaking amharic ?

No we'd be speaking Latinised Somali. Somalia would Roman Catholic.

[BetterDaysAhead]

ARE YOU OK SXB?

 

[Al-Burcaawi]

church of isaaq, church of dir, church of darod, church of hawiye etc.

with no islam to keep ourselves at least slightly united we'd resemble a dysfunctional middle east rip-off with clan conflicts having a religious twist as the orthodox isaaq fight a crusade against the protestant darod, who find themselves under attack by the catholic hawiye to the south

 

[Cagmadhige]

ARE YOU OK SXB?

Yes
Sxb I'm good

 

[Gallant]

We'd be at the same level as Kenya.

 

[Gallant]

We'd be so irrelevant.

 

[Apollo]

We'd be at the same level as Kenya.

I don't think so.

Kenya was largely animist in the early 1900s with a small number of Muslims along the coast.

I think the OP is speaking of Somalia being Christian for like a millennium. Sort of like the Copts in Egypt or Habeshas.

We would pollute and drink shit-soup from those rivers as blessings. kkk

 

[Okiale]

You are over using smileys. Not cool

 

[Xasusi]

Some somalinised Christians names
Christiani
Pauli
Peteri
Johni

[EDsomali]

All Somali areas would be part of Ethiopia.
