CHINA TO BECOME WORLD'S LARGEST CHRISTIAN NATION BY MID-CENTURY

What am i supposed to feel? Besides sympathy.
Like i said, i believe what i believe because i believe it to be the truth. Others may have different views. How is that you associate christanity with europe or the americas? If you do a bit of research, Christianity came to the shores of Malabar from a direct disciple of Jesus Christ himself. A disciple called "Thomas" landed in kerala and established the first church in India. Long before even the Europeans got the wind of it. In fact, Christianity was established in India before the British or the Portuguese.

Not to mention, Christianity also came to India as a result of Syrian migration long before the British ever set foot here.

There is no swindle and there is no falsification, thomas did land in malabar. I suggest you actually read the historical accounts rather than conspiracy theories. This is no different to how Pakistanis say indus civilization is wholly Pakistani .



The "St Thomas coming to Kerala" theory has been denied by the Pope


Thomas's visit under doubt

NEW DELHI: His reluctance to believe what fellow disciples said about Jesus Christ's resurrection earned him the name Doubting Thomas. Centuries later, St Thomas — believed to be the man who brought Christianity to India — finds himself in the shadow of 'doubt' with none other than the Pope contradicting his evangelical trek in the country, only to modify it a few days later. But far from dousing the fire, the Pope has rekindled a debate and given critics an issue on the platter.

Pope Benedict XVI made the statement at the Vatican on September 27. Addressing the faithful during the Wednesday catechises, he recalled that St Thomas first evangelised Syria and Persia, and went on to western India from where Christianity reached Southern India. The import of the statement was that St Thomas never travelled to south India, but rather evangelised the western front, mostly comprising today's Pakistan

And since when is the pope an authority for christians worldwide?! Pope is head of the catholic church and nothing more. He is free to pass comments as he likes, it still wouldnt make it any more true.

He used to represent all of them but not now. However, since he is the highest figures in catholics and most visible person in religions today, he can wield pretty much damage still.

So China government indeed has no interest to let him interfere our internal affairs. BTW, we are really not interested in establishing any relationship with Vatican unless he can promise to have his hands off China internal matters.

Whatever he represented , it was not with our consent. We were never a part of the catholic church. We are not protestants who broke off from catholicism. We are a wholly different entity.

It ranks 7th in terms of world chirstian population ranking with 67million Christians which is 5% of chinas population.

True for now, but I hope that number decreases over the years. China and India has a large and rich history and culture therefore dose not need to be minuscule by these popular western mythology culture.

agreed, we have thousands of years of native religions like Confucianism, Buddhism and Hinduism as well as official imported religions like Islam. The current brand of Christianity being promoted is a mind enslavement tool of the West.

Is there even any western involvement of the west on chinese christians lol.

Prejudice , accuse the west of everything.(not u)
 
Whatever religion it may be, China government will not tolerate its growth into something that can potentially challenge the government.
 
...funny thing is that all chinese parents take thier kids go out to get candies...after giving out candies I take my kids out so their can get their treats and not one chinese house give out candies... hahahhaha cheap as f ^&&. every year my lady and I joke that we might find one chinese household giving out candies.

...

The fake Japaness that failed to pass Japaness reading test finds yet another chance to attack the Chinese. :tdown:

Just to open your fool's eyes blinded with hatred: many Chinese all around my area gave FRESH candies, unlike you that may give out 10 years old ones. The are concerns from some Christians that Halloween is not Christian prevents some from participating in the game...

You need to step outside of India (actually your state if I resume it to be Kerela). Do you celebrate Christmas? You know the thing that celebrates the birth of Christ;) How about the name Jesus Christ;) What bible do you read by the way? Well good thing you are associated with to Syrian church. That isn't true for most Christians.

I have little time and even less respect for conspiracy theorists. What i said was 'christianity' did not originate in the west.

Don't sound like a petulant child. Could you bother to define what "Christianity" is? The book, the culture, the beliefs, ......?


How do Kerelaite Christians get married? Do they walk the Aisle? Bride in white dress? Flowers? Bridesmaid? ...I remember watching a video of Christian marriage in Kerela (I think). Bride and groom didn't kiss at the end. Still I doubt marriage ceremony had it's origin in India or even Asia.
