Indeed, there have been so-called "Christian" barbarities. You might have heard of the Spanish Inquisition too. Jim Jones? My point was the cultural norms of the British Empire were defensive of human rights and that China NOW [not hundreds of years ago or even 30 years ago] has not got that cultural bias towards universal human rights. Check out Darfur for example. When the British defence of civil life was withdrawn from India, there was carnage between Moslems and Hindus which continues to this day. India was so lucky to have the wonderful British supply cultural practices which enabled great development of India which unfortunately stopped when they left. Fortunately though, swarms of Indians with their english skills were able to escape to the economic powerhouses of the [somewhat more] free world. For example - China's colonialism in action: news.bbc.co.uk Arun, what matters is where we go from here not what barbarities were inflicted on people in times gone by. Chinese colonialism will NOT involve common law and the likes of the British Empire. The reason the Commonwealth Games are held is because the British Empire was a good thing. We don't have the German Empire Games, enjoying the happy homilies of Nazi ideology. The Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere Games have poor attendance. Countries get kicked out of the British Commonwealth, they don't leave. I know it's fashionable these days to be against Rudyard Kipling but life would be a lot better for any number of people if he was their ruler instead of the local yokel kleptocratic megalomaniac they ended up with instead of Queen Elizabeth II. How many people died at Salem and how many died during partition of India into Pakistan and Bangladesh? Mqurice
