I care what their actions are.
Actions can be punished.
For example If a religion was puttin gays in camps and torturing them
My country started with punishing nazis for not believing in holocaust, now they want to punish anyone for offending people.
@RyeNorth So if Nazism would be a Religion, you'd defend their right to their Religion?
Sure.
So *NOW* people care what China is doing?
Id defend their right to think and discuss their ideas openly
I'd do to. But what if they want to murder you if you critizize them?
they cant actually murder or threaten you
Beliefs VS actions.
Already forgotten Charlie Hebdo?
Punishable crime
The people who committed the attacks were bad and punished
The people who cheered for the attack were bad and cant be punished
They weren't bad according to their Books.
I don't care what their books say
You should!
The Bible says some horrendous things, too!
Not this arguement again
But a) nobody acts on it
b) everyone disavows it in the Bible.
That is the difference!
i dont really think either of you really understand why china is behaving this way
The Chinese hate any kind of organization. Anything that might form a power base to threaten the party is destroyed. They also go after labor unions and large student political organizations that aren't explicitly along party lines.
They were going after Christians. They've got a big issue in Xianjiang where there is a borderline open revolt against the ruling government. It's also a similar situation to Tibet where they are shipping in Han Chinese specifically to displace and pacify the locals. I guess they're now going after the Muslims, except it's a large enough majority that they can't just send up to prisons en masse or control all the churches.
Fast forward TLDR : religion does bad things people dont treat all religions the same
Tell that to the Salem witch trials.
they behave this way with EVERY group of people within china
```i dont really think either of you really understand why china is behaving this way```
Because the Muslim Population causes trouble and violence, don't integrate.
Because their religion tells them that the unbelievers are the worst of creatures.
Because their Religion tells them they are the best of people.
If you want a shout-out here, shout-out live, right here on free capitalist radio
Because their religion tells them to subdue the Nonbelievers.
I dont care about punishing people for following a religion
So if you think this religion is flawed, you should be able to persecute them based on participation in that religion?
It sets a bad precedent for society to do so
china doesent care about the religon
we've got three-for-one in japan
Any alternative to deal with this Religion?
as far as china cares, the religion is simply a title a group of people have
And you were lecturing me on nazism?
