Fromm the article:
“Interestingly, China has well-known Internet censorship, but there’s no “thought police” to prevent people from expressing opinions that are not “politically correct.”

This is what I mean when I say that in someways there is more freedom of speech in China than the US. The rub comes when the Chinese go from the spoken to the written. There are things you can’t write down. There isn’t much, among friends that you can’t say.

. . . but there’s no “thought police” to prevent people from expressing opinions that are not “politically correct.”

You're kidding, right? Because there are hundreds of thousands or millions of mainland Chinese Christians who would disagree heartily with you. Just ask all of them who choose to worship in smaller house churches rather than the state-sanctioned, official Christian church houses and groups.
