The Mandeans in Iraq

We hear so much about the fighting between Shiites and Sunnis in Iraq that we tend to forget about the other religious groups who caught up in the crossfire. I honestly don't know if whatever government takes over Iraq is going to be much better than Saddam Hussein.

Probably most of the United States haven't heard of the Mandeans. I probably wouldn't have heard of them if they weren't linked with gnostic groups.

One of these days, I'm just going to learn that I shouldn't read the news unless I want to feel depressed.
