China, A Religion-Free Country, Not a Religiously Free Country

Hundreds of believers at a newly built church in China's Zhejiang province have launched a vigil campaign to save their building and its huge cross from being demolished by the local government. However, their endeavor did not work. Chinese mainstream media always connect religions with anti-patriotism. Fearing that religions may become spiritual support to people who contradict the government and CCP, partly because that the CCP's propaganda is less and less dominant in public, the Party is trying to frame kinds of religions (including Buddhism, Islam, Christian, etc) and even demolish their churches or temples.
