I do wonder CB, why Americans do not first concern themselves with the mistake of Iraq for one, not to mention internal issues (example from your post the real message of Jesus, before it became Paulized. Love your neighbor as yourself.), before worrying about China and Tibet...

Not that my country is not similarly guilty...

Oh what a wonderful world if we all walked our talk and our talk was truly benevolent and guileless...

A true energy crisis... all that effort wasted on finger pointing when a simple honest look into the mirror, with the appropriate remedial action would be best...

The Black Swan

Edit: no I don't think the Chinese are innocent in this BTW, but the Tibetan situation is a lot less cut and dry that the Iraqi invasion..

>>That man is the closest thing to Jesus Christ on earth you will see in your lifetime<<

Uh-oh, that's a metaphor that could easily be "lost in translation" across the cultural divide. It seems there was once a Chinese named Hong Xiuquan, who thought he was the younger brother of Jesus. It ended badly...

<Love your neighbor as yourself>

Oh Please. That sounds like some sort of crowd control psycho babble propaganda.

Religion is a bunch of BS. It's all human created fantasy. Nobody knows the answers that religion claims to know.

Jesus was a great man. Nothing more and nothing less. Son of God? No more than you and I.

just precisely which part of the linked claims are incorrect?
stay with the facts, please
then discern the truth

- did he participate in armed rebellion that is funded by the cia
- did he appear in all those chummy photos with criminals and scoundrels
- is he the political leader of rampaging mobs of arsonists
