That's exactly what the communist party says. That chinese christianity would be legitimate, if they would express their faith in ways unique to their own ethnic and national identity.

You reenforce their position when you start yapping about how christianity will win..over their system of government. This is why they oppress christianity™, not because they would lose some silly argument about ghosts. I'm generally a big fan of revolutionaries - but I do think there's something pathetic and dishonest in wrapping an insurrection in the shroud of christ and then concern trolling when the government strikes back.

. They do it only because they're afraid of intellectual debate and know that in a fair debate, Christianity will easily win;

And yet you always easily lose every debate about Christianity here.

Where they easily imagine gods to be where there are none, it's not much of a stretch for them to also be delusional about their wins.

Chinese Christianity is legitimate, and yes Chinese Christians do express their Christian Faith in many ways unique to their own ethnic and national identity, which is perfectly legitimate. However, the Commie CCP, the Radical Islamist Faction in North Africa, the Hindutva Militants in India, or any other sect, has no right to persecute Christians. They do it only because they're afraid of intellectual debate and know that in a fair debate, Christianity will easily win; whether over Communism, Islamism, Polytheism or Atheism. It's the purpose of Christian Philosophy to show these competing opinions to be clearly off base, and that is something the Church Fathers did with the Jews and Pagans, then later Doctors like St. John Damascene and then St. Thomas Aquinas did with the claims of Mohammed/Islam, and now Atheism is being addressed by Christian Scholars like Dr. Craig, Dr. Habermas. We will see who wins. If it's a fair fight, my prediction is Christianity will win and win easily. Christianity easily answered Jewish objections on Isaiah 53, for e.g. and that's why so many became Christian.

(Bold mine)

This is redundant.

Its as good a time as any to point out that a non christian chinese cult is directly and largely responsible for much of the anti government rhetoric present in q and coup curious christianity in the us - which also happens to be the demographic most motivated to chinese evangelism, demonstrated by the fact that somewhere near 90% of chinese christians are protestants.

If something like Falun Gong sprung up in your country, I think your charitability toward other cults would change.

Oh wait. What am I talking about? You live in India. My bad. Carry on.
