Talk:Crypto-Christianity

message: Do the illegal Roman Catholic home churches of China count?
* I would say so, if the practice of Christianity was kept secret, especially if the Christian elements were 'hidden in plain sight' somehow.--Primalchaos 01:32, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: China

message: I found this sentence curious:
:Crypto-Christianity is the secret practice of the Christian religion, usually while attempting to camouflage it as another faith or observing the rituals of another religion publicly. In places and time periods where Christians were persecuted or Christianity was outlawed, instances of crypto-Christianity have surfaced.
I think that I have discerned in America the presentation of Buddhism (by Buddhist nones) in forms that look quite adaptable to forms of presentation that are found inside Christendom. MaynardClark (talk) 23:01, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Crypto-Buddhism?

message: The article should probably include examples of crypto-Christianity in the Middle East. Virtually every country in the Mideast region has experienced a phenomenon of crypto-Christians, given that Christians often have problems with the level of religious tolerance over there.

replies: text: Why this paragraph was erased?
Crypto-Christians, as well as Crypto-Jews, appear in Egypt (as a result of oppression by the Fatimid Caliph Al-Hakim) as early as in 11th c. and in Morocco in the 12th c. under the Almohads rule. Many Crypto-christian communities existed in Middle-East till 19th century, as muslim authorities were satisfied with some minimal requirements of obedience by converts. From late 19th c. onwards most of crypto-religious groups disappear as a result of the rise of nationalism in the new Middle-Eastern states M.

replies: text: I read the cited work, and the passage claiming crypto-christianity/judaism disappearing in the mid 20th century deals specifically with Iran in the context of the Iranian Revolution.  It has nothing on the other Middle Eastern states.  Propose a revert or a better edit. --Cabazap (talk) 03:41, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
