Chicoms, if I said what I really think of China's rulers I would be banned
Chicom supporters, appeasers and netagandists are the wrost. And there are many who participate here at FR.
We should cease treating China as a normal trading partner. As we make China more wealthy, it only become more powerful and more arrogant.
The article is certainly incomplete. I had head that Pope Benedict had invited four bishops from the Chinese-schism church to attend a synod, effectively recognizing them. The defense of this was that Benedict hoped to unite the churches, but I was very alarmed at the news. Now, on the one hand, the CPA bishops are allowed to attend, and the loyal bishops are not, Benedict's actions would be completely an outrage.
On the other hand, if these four disallowed bishops are the four bishops I had read about, then I would infer that they were CPA bishops, but they were invited on the precondition that they accept the authority of Rome. In which case, Benedict's plan was wonderful: it either exposed the CPA to be belligerent anti-Christians, or healed a schism at least in the instance of those four bishops.
Obviously, since scenario is wrteched, and the other encouraging, I am desperate to know which one is true! (of course, this could also be another story altogether.)
