#WR: China wants to reinvent Jesus. In a Harvard University Press book titled “Jesus in Asia”, the author -R.S. Sugirtharajah- explains the efforts of the Communist authorities to control the Catholic and Protestant churches. They use religion as tool to manipulate people! #Jesus

 

 

SOURCES: The New York Review of Books in its October edition published a review of Ian Johnson of a book titled "Jesus in Asia" written by  R.S. Sugirtharajah and posted for Harvard University Press.

The article starts "Over the past few years, the authorities in Beijing have given churches across the country orders to "Sinicize" the faith".

Ian Johnson says "...the authorities want more than just political control; they want a say over Christianity's spirit, too. "
