"the officially atheist Chinese Government puts theists in jail for the crime of theism."

You are 100% WRONG and spreading misinformation. Mike Pence may agree with this position, but reasonable people do not.

The Chinese Government jails people for opposing the state. Period. Whether they are theists or atheists, it doesn't matter. If you speak out against the government or pose any kind of threat, you are arrested.

If they arrested people for "theism" then there would be no theists free in the country. But there are millions.

So stop with the lies. Your virulent hatred is really ugly.
