Chinese leader mocks weak, western Christian values.

Answer is vietnam, they went 1-2. About 50 years ago

They've been fighting off and on for like 2000 years though.

Pretty sure if someone slaps us on the cheek, we turn the other cheek, pull out our revolvers, and blow their heads off.

"In our culture we follow a hideous old code of soul crushing collectivism where your life is decided for you, empty materialism that would make a Wallstreet insider blush, and a system of lies that corrupts everything to promote the hollow mask of "face." - President-4-Lyfe Xi caught on an open mic.

 

[spin]

“In the West you have the notion that if somebody hits you on the left cheek, you turn the other cheek,” Xi said in the report, according to people briefed on his remarks. “In our culture, we punch back.”


This is the mindset we are dealing with. Your tolerance will not save you. Thankfully Trump is an atheist no matter who he panders to. You liberals are falling on your sword and gonna get us killed just like Jesus got himself killed. Wake the fuck up. I am sick of you Christians in atheist clothing.

Xi is a fuckin atheist. You aren't.

I think someone should also inform that marvel villain in a flesh suit that there are estimations that in 2030, there will be more Christians in China than in the US.

In 1958, there were 3,8 million Christians in China and today, almost 90 millions.

Wether Xi likes it or not, if Christianity continues to grow at this rate, it will very likely change the country to its core.

Death is the last weapon of the tyrant. Jesus defeated death.



If he wasn't resurrected there wouldn't be a religion. The apostles all took off when he was crucified.

Video or GTFO

 

[AndroidRage]

lol. so true. Those Chinese sneaky as fuck. With that new age spiritual shit to disarm us. They pumped more weakness into our society cuz they noticed Christianity was in decline. I can't help but admire them though. They are playing their hand so well. We have no fuckin idea.

So they can take advantage of us due to weakness from Christianity declining..... but Trump who you claim is an Atheist is a strength? Lmao

They don’t usually punch back. They tend to kick or karate chop.

 

[tramendous]

Western countries are nicer to live in.

I mean the actual current country. They dont actually get into wars. And thry dont do great on the occasions they do.


Although it also seems like invading Vietnam doesnt work well for anyone

 

[Prutfis]

He's not wrong. China is hard, purpose driven by their national interests and unswayed by emotion. We need men with the same mindset.

Ever been to China? They are filthy, disgusting people with 0 manners and who need 6 people to do the job of 1 westener.
Their economy is also a complete sham.

From an article featured in the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs journal:

Christianity’s Growth in China and Its Contributions to Freedoms

The Christian growth in contemporary China is quite similar to the Christian growth in the fourth-century Roman Empire. Amid wars, natural calamities, and social turmoil, the number of Christians has grown in spite of persecution and suppression. By now it has become clear that there are more practicing Catholics in China than in Italy and more practicing Protestants than all of Europe. If this growth continues at the current rate, in less than two decades China will become the largest Christian country in the world. This would have vital consequences for China and the global community.

Assuming the growth maintains at the level of the modest 7 percent per year—the averaged compound annual growth rate of Protestants from 1950 to 2010—by the year 2030 there could be more 224 million Protestants in China.

Not only has the number of Christians increased, but the social backgrounds of Christian converts have become diverse, including workers hailing from middle-class and elite professions. From the 1950s to 1980s, Christianity grew mostly in rural areas among peasants. In the 1990s, in tandem with an economic transition toward a market economy and global integration, there emerged the social phenomena of Christian businesspeople (“boss Christians”) and Christian intellectuals (“cultural Christians”). In the 2000s, large numbers of Christian lawyers, professionals, and artists emerged. Meanwhile, many large congregations arose in the urban metropolises, including both the officially-approved churches and the unapproved “house church” congregations.

In China today, Christians are at the frontlines of practicing and campaigning for individual freedoms, from the freedom of belief to the freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom for public welfare, and freedom for civic engagement and political participation.



Another place where Christianity is growing rapidly is sub-Saharan Africa:

Sub-Saharan Africa will be home to growing shares of the world’s Christians and Muslims

If it becomes a "threat" to the Communist Party, Christianity will be destroyed and driven underground again.

Tyranny must be preserved for the Party Apparatchiks to even exist, and they will pay any human cost to maintain their tyranny.

"We punch back"

Apparently someone missed America's reaction to September 11th. When we get hit, we don't punch back. We invade your home and fucking kill you.

Not always the right home though!

Very interesting read!

I have previously read that Christianity is popular among students and students are a future powerhouse in China. If the trends continue, it will be interesting times ahead.

True indeed! There are numerous attacks on Christians and churches but they don't seem to be able to curve stomp the growth. To loosely paraphrase the iconic rap album, "It takes a nation of billions to hold us back".

When Christians reach a certain threshold, I think (and hope) that the powers that be will change their strategy towards Christians and perhaps see them as a perfect way to develop better relationships with the West. It might very well be wishful thinking but God works in mysterious ways!

The enemy wants to flood the u.s. with illegals to weaken the nation

The enemy promotes LGBTQ because it weakens the.nation

And people like China are starting to drool and get anxious by a weakening country like the u.s.

It's pretty appalling when this gets 8 likes.

 

[Goonerview]

Turning the other cheek does not mean that Christians should ignore threats or endure violence. It means that we shouldn’t return evil deeds with evil deeds. If your brother is threatened, turning the other cheek would not mean that you won’t help him, even if it means that you have to use defensive violence!

It’s sad that we are so tribal and focusing on idiotic celebrities instead of realizing the threat China is.

The threat from within is far more dangerous than China.

We have already lost

Maybe in the past. These days it seems like they're more likely to throw themselves in front of your car and then attempt to extort money from you.

 

[sweede]

Lol yeah, get back to me when you have killed people on an industrial scale before you talk about being weak.
There is a reason the Chinese are following a German ideology and not the other way around.
He should watch his mouth before the Fatherland decides it might need some more Lebensraum further east.

SAD

Everytime you mention the Fatherland, I´m thinking of Company of Heroes 1. The best game ever! As for your other posts in the War room, I like them.

It’s sad that we are so tribal and focusing on idiotic celebrities instead of realizing the threat China is.

Agreed! China is the real threat.
