"Besides, without imported Chinese researchers, not much research gonna get done."

Absolutely wrong. We have the talent. Even now, most of the technology which dominates our society was developed without the aid of Chinese scientists.

I believe judeo-christian science will remain pre-eminent no matter how many multiples of non-judeo-christian scientists there may be. (yes, religion and culture is very definitely a factor in science.)

Sorry, but you clearly have no idea what you're talking about, and are obviously not personally involved in Science and Engineering.

Without the importation of foreign students (Chinese, or otherwise) the Graduate level Engineering and Science programs of the majority of U.S. Universities would implode. Are there Americans with the talent to do the work? Sure. But they're also smart enough to know that there are better, more-lucrative careers in Law and Business, and that's where they go.

Well, it's a free country, and you're welcome to believe whatever you want. On the other hand, there are a lot of top researchers from India, Japan, and S. Korea who can refute that statement. The laws of physics don't care about somebody's religion or race, and neither should we.
