The situation with the main world religions in the Middle Kingdom is well known, but now it seems that China has surpassed itself and declared that all "classic religious books" will be "overrated." Chinese communists intend to rewrite Islamic and Christian scriptures so that the "extremist thoughts" and "heretical ideas" that appear there do not destroy the country.
According to the Daily Star, the instructions for rewriting the Koran and the Bible were given at a meeting in November, during a plenary session held by the Committee on Ethnic and Religious Affairs, which is responsible for all religious issues in the country. From now on, the Bible and the Koran must fully comply with the "era of the president."
Beijing finalized the decision at the National Committee of the People's Political Consultative Conference of China, calling for "a comprehensive assessment of existing religious classics aimed at content out of step with the progress of the times."
Obviously, this project applies to all major religions, not excluding the Buddhist sutras, since they do not reflect the socialist values and beliefs of modern Chinese society.
The ruling also emphasizes that "the parables of Jesus Christ" must be brought "in accordance with the ideas of the Communist Party", otherwise they risk becoming inaccessible to believers.
The Chinese have officially stated that this project to change the scriptures, including "optimizing" the Quran, "is a choice of history."
It seems that the leadership of China is "Ahead of the entire planet" not only in digitalization, but also in the synthesis of religious teachings for the upcoming "New World Order".
