"From what they discussed during negotiations, the point isn’t about the illegal construction, but about the cross,” the leader told the Post. “Some top officials believe that there are too many crosses, too many churches, and in every county, they asked for a few crosses to be destroyed, not all of them."

Now that sounds familiar.
ACLU, are these your Comrades?
 
Good article.

Is sad that Chinese government has a modern history of cracking down on Christians. However look on the bright side, at least they are allowing some Christian protest which is fairly unprecedented. This also shows that Christianity is growing in China too. The issue here I think is CCP fearing losing national control of China and the country descending into chaos as history shows has happen to China many many times. The CCP government's biggest fear is chaos, and rightly so. Ironically Christianity is one of the biggest contributors to country stabilization and could help China a lot. The real challenge here with modern Chinese government is getting the CCP to realize this. I think CCP should relax on Christianity, whenever Christianity has flourished in its borders so has China.
 
There are more Christians in China, than there are Australian citizens in Australia.

Some of their problem with Christianity has to do with Colonialism.

When the British were pushing hard drugs on their society, and they had a massive drug addict problem, they went to war, and it ended with the agreement for the British to Control the Hong Kong area for 100 years. (Remember in 1997 when it was handed back?)

The Commos are militant Atheists of course. But they see Christianity as the British forcing their value son their society.

Maybe Americans can relate?
 
Maybe Americans can relate?

In terms of Piers Morgan and his anti-gun, big government agenda I think we can relate. There was a petition written up and signed by some tens of thousands of Americans to deport the guy. Only 25,000 signatures are required for the American government to review any petition.

But I don't even think Christianity has anything against Communism per se if it weren't so godless. The very first Christians shared their belongings in a communal fashion.

Acts 4:32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.

I don't think I'm prepared to be that one in heart and mind, but you show this to Communist officials in China and it'd probably give them reason to pause.
 
The persecuted church in acts was not communist. It was united in love, not forced together by the gun, which is what communism is.

If it was godless only, fine. It's repressiveness is the direct problem...which stems from it's godlessness.
