China bans reincarnation without permission

[KafirChobee]

Wasn't certain whether I ought to just put this into the "news of the weird", but decided that with all the other strange things coming out of China (lame claim to fllod world money market with $$$US dollars$$$, rewriting how last names will be expanded - put that one in the weird news thread, and all but laying claim to the North Pole) this required its own thread.
Maybe wrong, but this does demonstrate just how far reaching a totalitarianist government can go to attempt universal political control of all peoples under them (whether legally or not).

This would be laughable, if it weren't so sad that the Commies actually believe they can control a non-state religion.

On a lighter note, ever wonder what you might come back as (or whom) after death. or even if you will?

btw, if it doesn't post up - just do a refresh. worked for me.
Oh, I'm to be a rhino - gah! Endangered again.

Amazing, the Chinese government wants total control over everything. Personally, I think we need to rethink Taiwan - atleast we know they are sincere about capitalism.
