Christ is king.

Prove it without using the Bible as your only source.

I mean... Can't really argue with the jpg. Pictures don't lie.

Christianity speaks to individual human experience. I am not a Christian, but I very much enjoyed listening to Jordan Peterson's interpretation of the philosophy behind the Biblical stories posted here a few days ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBBhxrJYsU4). If people in China shift to believing that individual dignity trumps group loyalty, that would be a game changer.

But I've been hoping for the downfall of the CCP for a decade now, and I've been sorely disappointed so far. Instead, I see their philosophy being increasingly reflected within our own government and society. Most humans are inherently susceptible to groupthink, and the CCP are the world's best masters in how to manipulate this tendency.

I'm not sure it will make that much difference, there are plenty of collectivist Christian societies.

Honour your mother and father is also a major Christian value.

Adoption of the Abrahamic Tripod of Trouble and its tenets will be the beginning of the end for China.
