Just wanting to let everyone know, Jesuit Priest Teilhard De Chardin was heavily involved with Mao Zedong

From a book called Teilhard De Chardin and Eastern Religions on page 86 to 87:

Between 1933 and 1936, Teilhard counted among his friends Edgar Snow, the journalist and famous author of Red Star over China. According to Helen Snow, Teilhard was one of the first westerners to learn about the experience on which this book is based, namely Snow's visit to Mao Tse-Tung and the Chinese Communist movement in 1936. Supporting evidence for this comes from another member of Teilhard's Peking circle of friends, Lucile Swan, who writes that Edgar Snow, on his return from visiting the Communist headquarters in Yenan, in Western China, brought photographs and information about the life and conditions there. As he was one of the first journalists to visit the Communists his reports were of the greatest value and Pere Teilhard questioned him from every angle as this new phenomenon was of much interest to him, as well all large manifestations of human energy.

Apparently, Teilhard read Red Star over China with great fascination. Together with the Snows "they discussed the new controversial subjects-fascism, Marxism, socialism, communism, and isms for which we had not even any common language then". Through Mao Tse-Tung's Marxism, an element of western thought and ethics reached for the first time the majority of Chinese Villagers never before touched by Western missionary influence. In Helen Snow's opinion, Mao Tse-Tung's influence and presence, more than anything else, were an example of Teilhard's thesis of human evolution. Apparently, Mrs Snow told Mao personally in 1937 about Teilhard's own vision and thought. Whether this actually happened or not, the story illustrates Teilhard knew more about the rising forces of communism in China than one would greatly suspect.
