Journalists Can't Cover Christianity in China



In response to Tony's post, I wanted to share a brief video clip about the repression of Christianity in China. Here, the government is destroying churches. Chinese journalists who tried to cover this story were thrown in jail, along with many other Christians who've been thrown in jail for holding private Christian services in their homes. This report suggests that there has been an explosion of Christianity in China, so now there are more Christians than communists-- a fact that the government most likely dislikes.

  1. "There are now more Christians in China than Communist party members."

    I wonder what Yong Tang would think about this, saying that the People's Daily was getting better at reporting more than Communist Party agenda. Would he think that this event, or even this statistic, could ever be reported? I would highly doubt it.
