In their effort to “exert total control” over religion and to “sinicise” Catholic and Protestant Christianity, the authorities have “ordered the removal of crosses from churches [and] replaced images of Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary with pictures of President Xi Jinping,” the report said.
The report concluded that “every facet of religious life for Buddhists, Catholics and Protestant Christians, Muslims, and Taoists” was facing pressure to incorporate CCP ideology, and religious elements considered contradictory to the state’s political agenda were being eradicated.
Yeah Muslims are a bit sensitive when it comes these kinds of things
That’s like saying “catholics are a bit sensitive when it comes to eating meat on fridays”. It’s a nonsense statement
Well you could look at incidence where things got out of hand like the “Muhammad cartoons crisis”.
Or just look what happened in Sweden with the Quran
I think Muslims take this more seriously because, as someone who grew up in a region where most people identified Catholic (and most of the rest just had no religion) but didn’t practice much, I wasn’t even aware of that rule.
