The Chinese cult that kills 'demons'

There's something truly bizarre about fanatical Chinese christians beating people to death in a Chinese McDonald's....

In late May a group belonging to a banned cult beat a woman to death in a fast food restaurant. Her only crime was to refuse to give them her telephone number.

The cult in question is called the Church of the Almighty God and claims to have millions of members.

It was an ordinary evening in a small town McDonald's in east China until a family of six arrived trying to recruit new members to their Christian cult.

Christian lunatics? That gives us the full set, doesn't it, we can add them to bloodthirsty Zionists and head-chopping jihadists.

It states: "Since the Communist Party came to power in 1949, religious faith has suffered from full-scale crackdown and persecution by the Communist Party - the red dragon - in mainland China."

Of course it's true that until the late 1970s, Communist China did persecute all religious faith, and even now allows it only within strict guidelines.

Considering the way the assorted god-is-on-my-side fanatics behave unchecked, that's probably a very wise idea.....
