Crackdown

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

"Officially, China is an atheist country, but constitutionally guarantees religious freedom." That guarantee is a sham. Who really has freedom? The government or the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). And now they want to persecute Christians.

"In the name of maintaining “safety and beauty,” the CCP has bulldozed churches and torn down crosses. . . Since 2014, 1,800 crosses have been torn down by the Chinese authorities. . . Those who speak out against the CCP’s decisions are arrested and placed in black jails."

"Beijing now wants to force its way into the pulpit too. CCP religious affairs officials want their own time slots during Sunday worship to educate churchgoers about the Party’s religious policies and regulations. The idea is not popular among parishioners."
