  20. For your statement to be true society, which tends to desire religion, would have to be in constant conflict with authority constantly and universally and nothing is further from the truth. The answer why can be found in Psychology. All healthy respect for authority is dependent upon a healthy relationship at childhood with one's father. Dad establishes healthy respect for authority by being an authority over the household mom establishes healthy relationships between just people in general. In other words, it's a scientically proven fact that if you can't establish a healthy relationship even with friends or you cannot respect authority it's a good indicator something went wrong during childhood between mom and dad and you. What does this have to do with religion, or Christianity for that matter? Easy exodus 20:12 honor your father and mother. In fact the 10 commandments even Exodus through Deuteronomy establishes healthy relationship between people, society, family, law, and authority. So if religion is in constant conflict with authority then what's this doing in the Bible? Let me propose an alternative it's the opposite that's true in the case of China. It's authority creating conflict with religion? Why? What's the motive? Because Christianity is not a religion the CCP can control and it has this really bad habit, I suppose you can say, of creating perfectly content people who are arguably more moral due to a diety that is beyond the party's sphere of influence. And that is something the CCP chooses not to allow and is threatened by.

  36. You know I couldn't help but notice the comments cheering the ccp for their efforts against the church but can't really say anything when asked to justify their comment. Except one I have to credit to who gave it a try. It was really a good conversation but the only flaw in his argument was that he ran into what logic refers to as the law of noncontradiction which refers to using standards to attack a standard in his case he was trying to virtue signal by saying that in the Bible God ordered the conquest of certain countries, in doing so calling upon justice upon God. Except he did so without reading everything about that conquest namely what prompted it. According to scripture the canaanites were guilty of sexual immorality, which is further clarified by Greek historian Herodatus and what the Bible is talking about is what could be best described as ritualistic rape, incest and prostitution which extended even to children, they were also guilty of child murder, Herodutus again clarifies that the canaanites worshipped an idol named Moloch which had these huge hands over a fire and on these hands would be placed babies some no older than 2. While these kids would be literally cooked alive there would drums that would be beaten so the kids parents couldn't hear their own child's painful screams as it's roasted alive. So essentially God was placing judgment on a nation of rapists, child molesters, and child murderers whom in most criminal justice systems today would receive the death penalty. So essentially we both agreed that there was a need for justice when someone commits such crimes but where we disagreed on was was God an offender or was he acting justly. If we take both scripture and history into account God's actions were justified. My opponent didn't want to agree to this for what seemed to be 2 reasons. 1. To take this into account exonerates God and 2. He preferred a black and white view of justice when justice in actual practice is hardly black and white. Look up the differences between justifiable homicide, murder and manslaughter to see what I mean. Yes they all involve killing but each one has very specific differences. This example shows why we need the full story including the reasons before giving a fair judgment otherwise any judgment you make is entirely arbitrary and a miscarriage of justice.

  39.  @12345as-k  Let me put that same slave analogy another way. One of the biggest reasons to justify persecuting Christians is foreign influence. How many foreigners do you think the arrested Christians personally know? I actually spent 6 years in Asia and I have visited Christian communities where they never even seen a foreigner before. These are often small villages in the middle of nowhere that can only be accessed by roads you wouldn't dare drive on in anything that wasn't built for off roading. Now maybe in the larger cities you can put a generous percentage on how many actually knew a foreigner but all of them? Really?? Then there is this accusation that they are engaged in Terrorism? Really?? And I suppose I am suppose to ignore the fact that this is coming from an ideology that arguably has had more terrorist groups attached to their name then even Jihadist groups in the past 100 years. In fact I would bet that if you spoke to a Chinese Christian you will find that they are more Chinese then the CCP wants even you to believe. In fact historically speaking whenever a political decision was made to use Christians as cannon fodder in wars, much to the states annoyance, they turned out to be 100x more loyal to the defence of their state then any radicalized citizen can ever become. You don't have to take my word for it look it up yourself any country that ever tried to get rid of Christianity that way bet you anything it turned into a surprising lesson in Christian sub culture time and time again. You can start with the Romans under Marcus Aurelius. Even Stalin tried it in WW2 he had to quietly exterminate them after it turned out that many of them were willing to fight and die for Russia despite what Stalin put them all through and knowing Stalin wasn't to be trusted.
