kublai khan in heaven

i was surprised the first time i heard it. but, it turned out that he was very interested with christianity when first introduced by the polos (marco and his two uncles maffeo and nicolo). he even asked them to ask the pope to send christian missionaries to teach christianity for his people. however, because of the turmoil between the cardinals at that time to elect a new pope this missed opportunity forever failed to change the face of the eastern civilization. Instead they only sent two and both of them were unable to finished their journey.

can you imagine if it wasnt for the politics, the chinese civilization could have become a christian world! couldve.. shouldve.. wouldve..

"And so I shall be baptized, and when I shall be baptized all my baron and great men will be baptized, and their subjects baptized, and so there will be more Christian here than there are in your parts. " - k.khan
