High Level Communist Party Documents Reveal Nationwide Campaign Against Chinese Christians

ICC Note: In a stunning leak, ChinaAid, a Christian human rights organization, has posted high level documentation distributed by the Communist Party Central Committee directing government authorities to take action against the spread of Christianity in Chinese ?university campuses. The documentation calls Christian evangelism on Chinese college campuses a targeted infiltration by the United States in an attempt to undermine the growth of China. It also advocates firing or expelling professors and students that engage in "illegal" Christian activities.?

12/18/2012 China (ChinaAid) - ChinaAid on Tuesday released a secret Communist Party Central Committee document it had obtained that contains detailed instructions for a nationwide crackdown on evangelism on college and university campuses and among students, confirming that China's leadership at the highest levels is behind the increased Christian persecution of recent years.

The May 15, 2011 document entitled "Suggestions for doing a good job of resisting foreign use of religion to infiltrate institutes of higher education and preventing campus evangelism" and known as Document 18 was drawn up by the ministries of education, public security, state security and foreign affairs, the State Administration of Religious Affairs, and the United Front Work Committee, the party organ that oversees religious affairs. As befitting a document of the highest importance, it was distributed by the Communist Party Central Committee and the State Council. Only 8,330 copies were printed, and these were distributed to party, government and military offices at or above the municipal or regiment level only.

Its references to "religion" refer mainly to Christianity, and it named the United States as leading the attempts to use Christianity to infiltrate China's institutes of higher education. ChinaAid obtained the document, which has never been publicly released, from informed sources at the top levels of the Chinese Communist Party.

"With China's rapid economic and social development and the steady growth of China's comprehensive national strength, ... [f]oreign hostile forces have put even greater emphasis on using religion to infiltrate China to carry out their political plot to westernize and divide China," the document said. "Foreign forces regard institutes of higher education as key targets for using religion, Christianity in particular, for infiltration."

"The goal of foreign use of religion to infiltrate institutes of higher education is not just to expand religious influence but even more to vie with us for our young people, our next generation," it said.

"The real harm and the long-term effects ... must not be underestimated, and forceful measures must be taken to respond actively and effectively," Document 18 said, calling the job of resisting the infiltration and preventing campus evangelism "important to the fate of the country and the fate of the people; it has important and far-reaching implications."
