China bans hymns and punishes Christians for religious materials
Chinese Communist Party officials in Luoyang, Henan Province, combed through a printing press looking for prohibited materials
China has tightened restrictions on the distribution of religious materials in recent months, threatening fines, closing printers or even imprisonment for selling Christian books or allowing customers to photocopy hymns. The news is from The Christian Post.
Bitter Winter, a publication that monitors violations of religious freedom in China, reports that this month, Chinese Communist Party officials in Luoyang, a municipal-level city in central Henan province, combed a local print shop for banned religious materials.
China has tightened restrictions on the distribution of religious materials in recent months, threatening fines, closing printers or even imprisonment for selling Christian books or allowing customers to photocopy hymns. The news is from The Christian Post.
Bitter Winter, a publication that monitors violations of religious freedom in China, reports that this month, Chinese Communist Party officials in Luoyang, a municipal-level city in central Henan province, combed a local print shop for banned religious materials.
A worker at another store told Bitter Winter, "If we're not sure if a text is religious, we should keep its copy and report it to the authorities."
religious books
“The government exercises strict control over the goods sent by mail this year,” said an official at a courier company in Luoyang. “Only submission of government-approved books is allowed. All 'bad information' books, including religion, cannot be shipped. If public safety authorities discover violations of these regulations, the company will be fined and closed. ”
Last month, Chen Yu, a Christian who operated his online bookstore in Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, was sentenced to seven years in prison and fined RMB 200,000 (US$29,450) for selling unapproved religious publications.
Police also opened a national investigation to trace the bookstore's customers through sales records and confiscate their purchased books.
A preacher from a local Shandong church also told Bitter Winter that police investigated him after discovering he had purchased religious materials from Taobao.com, a Chinese online shopping site.
“It seems to me that the government can access everything; I feel like I'm running naked,” said the preacher.
