Chinese Government Ban Children From Attending Church In The Country


Chinese government has banned children from attending churches, religious sermons and another related activities all in a bid to tighten their grip on religious activities in the country.
.
The government began to take control of churches when churches were ordered to remove crosses from their buildings in Zhejiang Province. William Nee, researcher for Amnesty International told MailOnline:

“At this point it’s unclear how widespread the ban on children attending church services are in China, but these alarming reports seem to be coming in from fairly diverse areas throughout the country.” .
“In an important speech on religion last year, the President, Xi Jinping, said that young people must study science, believe in science and develop a ‘correct’ worldview and set of values. .
.
“It could be that the government is concerned that young people going to church or religious activities may challenge their monopoly on truth and the government’s ability to instill its own historical narratives and worldview through the public education system.
