That's going to have amazing ramifications for China's foreign policy in the next decade or two
Can't wait to see how it all plays out


Can't wait for that official visit from a pope in China a few years from now...

What does communism have to do with religion?
Communism is more like a cult than a religion, indeed.

Whether called religion or cult, there certainly seems to be a latent tendency towards religious-type belief in humans. Not that it unfolds in every individual, of course.

I remember reading, about 40 years ago, about a sect that had sprung up in the south of Russia, claiming that Lenin was immortal. But as unedited info from out of the Soviet Union was not all that lively at the time, I never found any follow-up or details.

The simple proof it is a cult is to go visit this dude
