I'm so glad you responded with this topic. I figure the best way to learn about a people group or culture is to go right to the source... I know I was surprised when you said you were not persecuted and were allowed to worship freely. I also think it's neat that there are Christian missionaries there doing the work and spreading the gospel. So awesome! That's as it should be, brother Hillson. It is a joy to discover that the Chinese don't have any worse problem than we do with persecution. Amen and amen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe she did not want to offend us being a guest in our house but after becoming comfortable and relaxed she said that she was taught that Christianity and all religions where backward and superstitious things. Hello refugepsa91's boy  can you find Australia? Can you find Maitland that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, when I read your post I thought, "Hey, I live in America, and every television show I've watched implies the same thing." Seriously, though...whenever I watch television, most shows make Christians out to be either ignorant, criminal or just plain evil. I am also the only one in my whole family, {except for my husband} who's a believer. Most people just look at us as if to say, "Oh, how quaint."
