The failure of conversion


 

I´m old enough to remember when a certain Orbán Viktor claimed that Hungary was a bulwark of Christendom against "the barbarians of the East". 

He wasn´t refering to the Russians, alas, but to the Muslims. 

Today, he is slavishly tailing the Muslims, too! Or more specifically Turkey. At first, I wondered how this can be possible. But then it struck me. Yes, the Magyars used to be a Turkic tribe. Their language? Probably kind of Turkic, too. We are talking genetic determinism here. 

It seems the conversion of the barbar to Catholic Christianity failed in this case.
