Freedom of conscience should not be abrogated.

It's not like the Chinese authorities nailed 95 theses to the door.

When has the fucking church ever advocated "freedom" of anything?

When have I claimed they did?

My point was political, not theological. I had though that was obvious.

And it annoys me no end, the christers are going to work themselves into a froth over this decrossification in China without first evaluating the franchise there for ideological purity and conformance to the terms and conditions as set down by god almighty.

They might be apostates, blasphemers and/or heretics, and the Chicoms are actually doing the Lawds work there !!!!
