Converting the Mongoloids


Very recently, the authorities in China ordered a crackdown on public worshipping. The decision was taken due to a massive growth of underground Christian worship places. Millions of Chinese have converted to Christianity. Since officially China does not have a state religion and most of the Chinese have very little concept about organised religion, they are an easy target for Christian missionaries. In fact, a survey showed that a large number of poor people in China are converting not because they are convinced about the message of Trinity, but because of the glamour and the promise of a better life in the West.

A similar situation exists in Korea and Japan. After Japan's defeat in WW-II, a large number of Japanese were forced to convert to Christianity by Americans. Many Koreans were forced to do the same during and after the Korean War.

On top of all this, the self-proclaimed crusader, the fanatic preacher Franklin Graham recently declared, "We need to convert the Mongoloid people by any means, so that they can declare war on Islam in the East." A recent article published in a Catholic newspaper showed that thousands of missionaries are working in Korea alone. These converted people are then sending thousands of missionaries to other countries. A recent BBC article said Korean Christians are planning to send 12,000 missionaries to all over Asia, funded by Americans. They are now targeting Muslim countries in the Middle East and South-east Asia. The news is indeed alarming since after 9/11, these fanatics have added vicious anti-Muslim propaganda as part of their message, which was until recently quite subtle.
