The word Christian has grown to near meaningless. There are Christians for abortion, envy, gluttony, homosexual marriage, etc. What does Christian really mean? Are there clearly defined values that all “Christians” embrace?
You could literally be looking at the pop culture destruction of “Christianity” via the Red Chinese. It’s Western, decadent and different. How is that different than tattooing or fashion-following?
I’ve met native Chinese Christians. Some impressed with their faithfulness and devotion. Others were just into it for the fun of being different. I suspect they’ll be Christian just like Americans are Christian.
That said, I’d rather see a billion Christian converts, than a billion Muslim ones.
I haven’t met any Chinese Christians, so you have me there. But the stories I’ve read by people who have tell me that these are highly persecuted people, quite devout. I doubt they are in it for “fun”. There was even a PBS special on the growing Chinese Christian church.
