Chinese students attending a Christian house church in the central Guizhou province are being threatened by government authorities who are warning them that if they don't stop going to the church, they will be barred from going to college.

"This notice was sent to all of the schools in Huaqiu," explained Mou, the person that human-rights advocacy group China Aid said was in charge of Huaqiu Church. "They (public security) intend to cleanse us and ask us to join the Three-Self Church."

The house church members have also reportedly been pressured into signing a document vowing that they will not take minors into the church. Additionally, parents have been told that they will be sued if they bring their children to church, while the children themselves will not be allowed to take the college entrance exam or be admitted into the army.

House churches in China face regular crackdowns from the Communist Party, which fears the rise of Christianity in the world's most populous nation, with followers of Christ outnumbering members of the Party.

Even state-run churches have faced religious freedom challenges in the past couple of years, with an ongoing-campaign continuing to tear down church buildings and church rooftop-crosses over alleged building code violations in several Chinese provinces. Protests from Christian pastors and church members have led to hundreds of arrests.

Dear Boomslang,

If you are for fairness and justice, then please, do visit, our southern friends paradise on earth...

The land where christians are burnt alive,

Where churches are routinely burnt.

Where christians are forcefully converted to hinuduism.

Where christian are murdered for their faith.

Where nuns are raped.

Where christian women are raped.

Where pastors are dragged in public beaten and unrinated upton.

Where this happens not once in a while but shockingly more often than can be called civilised.

If you are for your christian brethren then please do be fair to them as well.

I have faith in your christian snese of balance and righteousness.

But if this is just for some good old internet fun on forums, please, do carry on.

Bless you!

Word.

Christianity is white men's fairy-tale of human origins. I find it embarrassing that many East-Asians are now adopting this Western nonsense and applaud any East-Asian country that tries to curb its dissemination.


Yeah, and rubbing the belly of a statue of some little fat dude is where it's at.
 
That’s not a nice thing to say. There are Pakistani muslims/christians/religious people too. What kind of friend are you to say that? :(

Dear William Hung,

I truly am thankful for your kind reply.

Thank you for making me aware of my insensitivity.

There was no intention of ill intent.

I appologise unreservedly if I have caused offence with my unconsidered ation.

Thanks once more.
