The Far East (Religion)

I always wondered what the Bible take on East Asia is. They are never mentioned in the scriptures. Strange considering that even America is prophetically mentioned. Which also begs the question, what about Australia? Hrmmm-I've never heard of America being prophecied. That one's new. -To me it means that the Bible was written in a specific geographic location and bears only knowledge of those places that the writers knew. -Anne Rice wrote a book called "Christ the Lord out of Egypt," a novel talking about the formative years of Christ before he became an adult prophet. A buddy of mine also surmised that he had contact with someone knowledgeable in Eastern thought, as many of his principles more resemble Indian/Buddhist thought. His teaching of love certainly is alien to the God of the OT.
