Comments for China’s Human Rights Abominations at http://www.thecatholicthing.org , comment 1 to 10 out of 10 comments http://www.thecatholicthing.org Wed, 19 Jun 2013 12:50:47 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-10833 I find it amusing that the staunch comments on this article direclty attack Obama and Biden for not doing more about Communist China's human rights violations, while simultaneously blame then for the US debt to China. While I completely agree, I think there's a case mass amnesia going on here: George W. Bush also did not condemn China, and his daddy granted China a Most Favored Nation status not terribly long after the horrible massacre in Tienamen Square. More importantly, when Bill Clinton left office there was actually a surplus. The massive US debt to China was cranked up during the Bush administration in order to fund the war in Iraq - a completely profit-generating venture that has cost at least 100,000 lives. I don't just count Americans killed, but Iraqis, too. After all, are they not also God's children? - Frank Sellers Fri, 13 Apr 2012 06:01:42 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-10828 I agree with the condemnation of China in this article. However, I can't ignore the familiar whiff of Christian hypocrisy, either. The article states, "China’s totalitarian domination of every aspect of its people’s lives is indeed 'a human rights abomination.'" Yet if the pope had his way, the Catholic church would also maintain a totalitarian domination of every aspect of everyone's lives, as it did successfully throughout the Middle Ages and would again today, if it could. Over the millennia, how many so-called "heretics" - Jews, Muslims, gay men and lesbians, or even simple political dissidents - were murdered, burned at the stake on the orders of the Vatican? - Frank Sellers Fri, 13 Apr 2012 05:49:28 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8030 good information - Thomas McLaughlin Thu, 08 Sep 2011 13:07:44 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8025 Hear, hear, Thomas. When Christ said that those without sin could throw stones first, he was talking about throwing real stones at a real sinner with the intention of causing serious bodily harm if not death. Saying that China's population control policies are monstrous is not throwing stones, literally or metaphorically. It's simply stating what should be obvious to anyone capable of rational thought. - Mark Thu, 08 Sep 2011 02:11:16 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8019 The myth of moral symmetry is one of the Communists' most effective weapons, and they have taught Sophia (what an ironic name) to wield it well. Even if our government and way of life were half as wicked as the Left claims, that fact would not be a justification for our silence on the monsterous ongoing deeds of not only the Chinese Communists but those of the North Koreans and Cubans as well. Of courese it is not only only the Communists who employ this clever ruse and asssault on logic: Before, during, and even after World War II the Japanese militarists trumpeted the evils of Aermica, such as the long ao abolished slavery, to silence cruticism of the barbarism they were perpetrating on the rest of Asia. It is vitally imortant that we not allow the Chinses Communists and their many apostles in this country to trick us into imaging that their Party's vulaes have changed since the time that they kept the Korean War going even after the North Koreans realized it was hopeless in order to kill as many Americans impossible regardless of how many Chinese or Koreans were killed in the bargain. Do their policies of forced abortion and organ removal have any equivalent in the West? Any hesitation or mitigation in condemnation of the Chinses government amounts to an insult to all those, including Christians who are suffering horribly even as we write. the silence ofAmeridcan and other Western apologets for this and other Satanic regimes have nothing to do with money we owe them, as shamful as that is: it is the direct restul of the fact that Communists have had a stangle hold on US academia, to inlcude our so-colled Catholic colleges for decades. We need to dispense the notion that there ever was sucha thing as "McCarthyism"--a term coined in the Kremlin. It is simply an attack on logic to posit that one cannot point out the evils of Communist China until all peoblems in our country are eliminated. That is an old Communist trick--now stop falling for it or repeating it, for by doing you are aiding and abetting the enemies of mankind. - Thoms C. coleman, Jr. Wed, 07 Sep 2011 13:16:03 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8018 Our skirts are no cleaner-"Let he who is without sin..." We grow food and throw tons away while people in our own country go hungry not to mention E.Africa. We export condoms and other contraceptives and abortion. We slaughter our own children by the thousands. We support oppressive regimes as long as they are useful to us then... We owe China so much $ we dare not say too much or stick with anything we might say. - Sophia Wed, 07 Sep 2011 12:20:17 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8017 "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." Our skirts are just as dirty. Countless aborted daily; we grow food and throw it away while people in our own country go hungry. We are among if not The biggest weapons dealer in the world; we support governments that we need for as long as we need them and then...The list goes on; we owe China so much $ we don't dare say anthing against them and stick to it! - Sophia Wed, 07 Sep 2011 12:15:39 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8008 I guess the pop-control police in US academia/Planned Parenthood/Rockefeller Foundation gave BO and Joe B permission to float the next stage of the pop-control program...next step will be forced maternity...Joe B will understand...soon he'll be at Notre Dame telling Americans about meeting US govt standards for baby quotas. - Chris in Maryland Wed, 07 Sep 2011 07:09:53 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8005 How is it that Obama's foreign policy is to denounce "dictators" like Ghaddafi, Assad, Mubarek, et al, while ignoring the much more egregious crimes of the Chicom hierarchy? Could it be that they hold a trillion dollars in U.S. paper and are the major reason why America has not yet filed for bankruptcy? If the Chinese starting dumping dollars big-time, the U.S. would become a banana republic without the bananas. It appears then that principal is much more important than principle. Good piece, George. But this type of commentary is largely absent from the state-controlled media given its penchant for puff pieces. Rather than call our the Chinese government for its many human rights abuses, the current administration throws state dinners and kowtows. Meanwhile, most of that junk Americans buy in Wal-Mart is made in China -- another example of financial dependency. - Grump Wed, 07 Sep 2011 04:34:20 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/chinas-human-rights-abominations.html#comment-8004 Thank you for a very clear exposition of what is occurring in China, Mr. Marlin. I know I can vote in 2012 in order to attempt to remove that cretin Biden. What do you propose I do about China? - Manfred Wed, 07 Sep 2011 02:02:47 +0100
