But it would be hella better to have a Confucist "Son of Heaven" than a Communist one.

I think it was Ignatius of Loyola who remarked on the admirable qualities and personal virtues of the 16th century Chinese people he encountered, the great strengths they would bring into Christianity. Confucism produced highly civilized people. Communism--- well, look.

Pardon me, that would have been Francis Xavier.
