They should have put up a statue to Genghis Cohen instead. :(

Your argument is that the guy quoted in the OP thinks Genghis is "satanic", and that's why he's putting up a statue of him?

Interesting.  :hmm:

So my argument is what:lol:

I don't think the Mongols even have the character of Satan in their religion!

Well some of them were Christians and Muslims.

We're all a little bit Mongolian. The Mongolian blue spot birthmark appears in two thirds of the worlds population, spread entirely by Genghis' invading hordes.

6% Christian Shamanist and 4% Muslim according to the CIA fact book.  I'll take 10-1 odds.

Technically you can count most Central Asians and Tatars as Mongols.
