Why should China allow their society to be subverted and changed by these ideologies?

If those churches preach "refugees welcome" and encourage demographic displacement, I can see where the Chinese stand.

To be fair most churches do this type of thing as standard in every country.

If you believe in God then he at allows your government to have power so the best you can do in church is pray for them to be good and wise and keep your politics outside.

Really??? I'm guessing that the USA, Canada, Mexico and France missed that memo. I've been to church in all of those nations and I never once had to listen to the national anthem or see a nation's flag raised.

    Uyghurs are not ethnically Chinese though, they are Turkic.

    Okay we're now talking about persecution to christian : what about the wide killing of us in the middle east and radical Islamic country?

    at least in China they have a leeway to live.

    When Christians are being persecuted it's the fault of other Christians

    Can you give some sources for this?

    I think the sources you give tells me more about you than the situation of Christians in the middle east. Both Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller deny the Rohingya genocide. I found some better sources about persecution of Christians in the middle east on my own.
