ReplyDeleteA freer Chinese people will probably see some of the populace become attracted to various world religions for the same reasons people all over the world harbor various beliefs.
I think the United States will be better off if that religion is Christianity, and not Islam.
In multi-party states, each party would like to have as many members as possible. In one-party states, membership is a ticket to the upper class and hence is restricted.

ReplyDeleteIf the Chinese are going to take over the world, I want them to be innoculated with fundamental Western values. Historically, Christianity has been the agent, because nothing gets down into the bones of a people better than a religion.
