Lawyers, what's the stupidest case you've ever taken on?

[@jamham69]

christianity is common across asia in general but within china, and especially in recent years, persecution for anything that strays from the norm is common. belonging to any religion, being foreign or belonging to a minority, being poor, being "low caste", being unmarried. The state doesnt need much of a reason to mistreat you.

[@suburbanbanshee]

Yup. Buddhist, Chinese god worship, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, whatever. The only religion that is not currently persecuted is worship of Mao; and yes, that is a thing with animal sacrifices and incense and such.

[@PupCake1025]

I know a Christian from China whose home church pastor had been arrested for religious reasons. And by home church, I mean a church hosted in different congregants basements each week since it was dangerous to be discovered having an organized religious gathering. Religious persecution in China is very real.

[@tpkyterooluebeck9224]

Thank you! This was the story I was trying to talk about in my comment above!

[@marcorizzoni9766]

Technically the followers aren’t persecuted, but the government want control of the clergy, so only pastors and with a permission from them are allowed to officially works as such, and the ones that haven’t the permission (and the followers going to them knowing so) are considered performing sedition. Technically is not that hard to get the permission and do your own thing, but basically they want them to be loyal to the party instead of foreign powers. So, easier to get if you are Chinese born member of the party that don’t have that much contact with, for example, the Roman Curia for an aspirant chatolic priest, much harder to get if you are a westerner that came to China to lead the local church. Of course that could be a dealbreaker for many reasons (especially for chatolics, that on paper should be always loyal to the Roman Curia and the pope first. On paper, in reality lately there is a lot bitching around “pope Francis is NOT my pope because he is not conservative enough”), but as far as persecutions went, that is a reeeeeally soft one.

[@avigailwaters6219]

Catholics and Christians are two different beliefs. Christians believe in the resurrected Christ and the Bible as who truth. They do not pray to saints and Mary like Catholics do. Christians also don't believe in the pope. The Chinese government also doesn't have separation of church and state. They want full control of what their people believe. They often downplay how harsh they are on Christians and other religions within their country so they can protect their trade with western nations. When they discover Christians or other undesirable beliefs, they are sent to a re-education camp.

8:38 I'm Chinese and one of the reasons my parents decided to move away was religious persecution (my mother was Catholic and very devout). The CCP will absolutely persecute you for being Christian. China is currently one of only three countries that enforces state atheism (the other two being North Korea and Vietnam) and they believe that religion will lead people away from the CCP's influence. There is no freedom of religion in China. Religious gatherings are illegal in most of the country, and where it is "technically" allowed (like Tibet and Xinjiang), it still won't save you from persecution. I mean, the CCP introduced a law that requires buddhists to ask the government for permission to reincarnate just to piss off the buddhist monks in Tibet. And there's currently an ethnic cleansing going on in Xinjiang where Uyghur Muslims are forced into "reeducation camps" and forced reject their language and religion for Mandarin Chinese and atheism. It's wild.

[@TrugoyEveryDay]

​@@mildlymarvelousI'm happy you didn't have to learn this yet, but a common coping mechanism relating abuse is to deny it. Denying it really happened like that, denying it's their fault, denying that it left any consequences. There are a lot of ways to go about it, but the reason behind it is to deny personal victim hood. Think of it like sugar, it doesn't feel right to actually blame sugar for my relation with it. I don't blame my excess weight on sugar, *it's my fault*. Blaming the sugar would declare me powerless to it, and that's not what I want to be. Truthfully it's just a process of setting boundaries and learning what will never work, but it's hard to forgive oneself for not having those boundaries and options in the past. So it's only human to have some coping mechanism around things like that, it's almost impossible to face how unfair life truly is.

A cat almost killed my mother, but there was no sickness involved. She got up in the night to go to the toilet. The light was off, so she didn't see the black cat ... and probably managed to step on her tail. The cat, obviously, was peed off, so she hit her claws into Mother's leg ... and managed to hit some bigger blood vessels. By the time I woke up and got done to her (I think she did call for help, and that woke me), she was lying in a not-so-small pool of blood, and ... the reason she got up in the first place. And she took a lot of convincing for my sister to drive her to the doctor in the morning. Because, like some of the people in these stories, she had ... ideas, let's call it.

Christianity is not very popular in China and pretty much all religions are persecuted because the communist party doesn't want competition when it comes to ideologies and worship. There are many religious groups that are targeted, some even being sent to concentration camps, like falun gong practitioners and uyghur muslims. Other than that, the chinese government has destroyed many historical monuments, statues and temples, some even more than a thousand years old. They also demand that things like pictures of communist leaders be placed inside churches/temples and mandate the presence of a communist party member in the administration of religious institutions. Tldr: The chinese government hates religion.

Regarding religion in China: as long as the religious organizations follow the government’s rules, they can have limited operations there. The things that are usually clamped down on are big organized group meetings (so no big congregations on Sunday and no official Church building, as far as I know). This is to make sure no “radicalized elements” gather a big crowd of people and get thoughts of revolution of their own 😂 As you can imagine, several of the big organizations do not like being limited! I hear anecdotally that the CCP really struggles with big religious organizations outright flaunting their violations of the rules, with the excuse that they have to do things their way and not CCP’s way because that’s “how they practice their beliefs”. As for your individual beliefs, as long as you don’t proselytize your beliefs to others you can practice your religion on your own without issue. This also explains why X religion is popular in China, Chinese people can believe whatever they wish but organizing as a big group is a big no-no. My cousin lives in China with her husband, and I got to stay with them for about 6 months. Hence how I know these little tidbits.

The government approving the appointment of top leaders of religious organizations is something which long predates the CPC governing the country (Chinese emperors historically appointed abbots and head priests of important temples) and is really more about controlling foreign influence over the country than actual religious control Things were very oppressive for all religious people in China during the Cultural Revolution, but that ended over 40 years ago.

I can never stop surprising the mindset of Americans, clearly this is someone else's fault, not mine.

Funny the prosecutor declares he works for the government. Yet he actually represents The People, not the government. That's the pro lem today with the government. They have forgotten who they work for. Rant over.
