The totalitarian efforts to suppress and control Christian faith in China have taken a disturbing turn that reflects Beijing’s greater Orwellian aspirations of social control.
In the communist nation, in which it is already quite dangerous to be a Christian, some churchgoers must now submit to facial and fingerprint scanning when they come to church.
According to Bitter Winter, an online magazine exposing China’s human rights abuses and religious oppression, government thugs set up two biometric scanning stations at the entrance of the Muyang Church in Hubei. Now, before being allowed in to worship, Christians must line up to be scanned in order for their government to more efficiently spy on them and impose punishment for their thoughtcrimes.
Bitter Winter reports:
"'A believer revealed to Bitter Winter that over a month ago, the local Two Chinese Christian Councils required all meeting venues established by Three-Self churches in Huangshi city to take believers’ fingerprints and put on file their personal and family information.
"The churchgoer is disturbed by the order since the requirement not only puts members of congregations under the government’s constant tracking and surveillance but can also implicate their family members and relatives. He added that those relatives who are civil servants or Communist Party members would be most likely punished or have restrictions imposed on their activities; this can even negatively impact their promotion at work.'”

Chinese Christians Submit To Face And Fingerprint Scanning To Attend Church As Persecution Intensifies
PING!
Where is the UN on this?
“Where is the UN on this?”
Coming to America in the future?
They sure are. How do they sleep at night?
With one eye open.
U.S. trade deals with CHINA must include religious freedom mandate.
They are NOT taking the mark of the beast but it may be the next step. I fear they are treading on thin ice by acknowledging their Christian faith to an atheist government.
Pray for them.
The UN is busy drawing up plans to prevent a civil war in America.. not kidding. In other words if the congressional coup against a President of the people doesnt work, the globalists will arrive to save the day.
China is our ultimate nightmare, a high technology communist tyranny which is using its technological and industrial might to develop effective tools for social control to facilitate the pervasive oppression of the ultimate police state
(!)
You forgot to add three words at the end: “...on OUR dime”.
Probably right behind it.
Lefties in this country are watching and learning from China.
