Years ago aUS copr "accidently" "lost" some Prop Silencing technology that could be, and now we know has been, used to make much quieter subs...

The Chinese have already brought a submarine into the middle of one of our Maritime Training Scenarios...

Someone, probably China, launched a missile of Californias coast...

Now, some wonderful idiot traitor has compromised our own stealth fighter!

And, yes Bill, we should be able to defend ourselves...

But, Nixon and every President since has strengthened ties to the dragon...

And, China *IS* saber rattling and they will take Taiwan by force and we *will* be powerless to prevent it...

(If obama doesn't outright give taiwan to them!)

China has more Christians than any other country in the world. I think God is raising up China to shame the US.

We can also thank Bill Clinton for signing NAFTA!

Our politicians and our corporate leaders have sold out to China for profit's sake.

Perhaps China will allow us to make these jets for them, to pay us back for all the manufacturing jobs we have sent to them.

Numerically you are, in all probability, right. Percentage of the population is a different matter.

Christianity in China is booming. With 100 million believers, far more than the 74 million-member communist party, Jesus is a force to be reckoned with in the People’s Republic. We talk to the new faithful who love China – but love God more

This is likely true, though it is hard to estimate the numbers because of the underground church.

For what its worth when a Christian identifies themselves in China it means they really are a Christian. There is too much social and political persecution to allow for nominal people to claim Christ.

Your idea is interesting...and given that South Korea is entirely Christian I think we can begin seeing this happening.

I read a number of articles on this and they all note that China's capabilities are likely several generations behind the US.

They are rapidly becoming the dominant economic force in the world. Within a generation they will likely overtake the US as a superpower.

I'd be willing to say that within a generation much of the world will be using their currency as the benchmark....and not the US dollar.
