Christian persecution in Banda Aceh
Was the tsunami cause by Christian persecution? I don't think so. And Wikipedia is not the place to propogate such theories. Thue | talk 16:15, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. But it's interesting to note (which the article doesn't) that after the eruption of Krakatoa and the ensuing tsunami, Muslim missonaries in Indonesia (who had been making great gains in 19th century) spread the word that the disaster was Allah's punishment for allowing European domination of Indonesia; this was the start of Indonesia's fight for independence from the Netherlands. --jpgordon&#8711;&#8710;&#8711;&#8710; 17:52, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
