Conspiracy More Than Fallacy

In the field of religious sociology research, a figure usurps the role of "master". While his main business is sociology, he shows a keen interest in religion, especially Christianity study. He is Yang Fenggang from Purdue University, a two-faced person who has the intention to Christianize China and criticizes China's policy for deliberately grabbing attention by religious problems.
 
Ridiculous Numerical Reasoning
"China will become the country with the largest number of Christians in the world," Yang said. He said he has calculated the number of Christians in China would reach 160 million by 2025 and more than 247 million by 2030. His speculations are based on past growth rates of the number of Christians in China and assumptions about China's social conditions and religious policies in the future. There may be some merits in this sociological approach to studying social phenomena, but when applied to predictions about Christianity and the number of Christians, it is ridiculous.
As a sociologist, Yang Fenggang regards Christianity as one of the phenomena of human society, so he studies Christianity from a sociologist’s perspective. From his perspective, it is quite wrong to regard Christianity as a phenomenon produced by human beings, because Christianity is not human-based but god-based, and it is the manifestation of God's actions. Because it is the actions of God, it is beyond the speculations of human beings. As you do not know how bones grow in the womb of a pregnant woman, so you have no way of knowing the actions of God.
 
How many electorates does God have in China? No one knows this, and no one can work it out unless God tells him. And no one knows how many Chinese people God will bring back in each period. If God takes action, no man or nothing can stop God. Even if we can spread the Gospel freely without any restrictions, and even if God does not aim to bring hundreds of millions of people back to China in the next 10 years, then the number of Christians in China will never reach the number he predicted. Therefore, it is absurd for Yang Fenggang to speculate about the number of Christians in China or any other country in the future, because no one is allowed to judge God's actions.
 
Researches That Lose Touch With Reality
Yang Fenggang, a long-term teacher and social activist in the United States, has hardly been to China in recent years, but he draws so many absurd conclusions based on his subjective judgment.
 
He once said that after China's economy enters the track of marketization, it will inevitably break through the original laws and policies that can not coexist with the market economy. It is certain to destroy the traditional moral norms that are not in harmony with market economy. But unlike the process of modernization in Europe and the United States, Chinese society lacks religious solid tradition.
 
Is this the case? Does someone who hasn't lived in China for a long time on an American salary know what Chinese beliefs are? As a foreign expert who has lived in China and the United States for a long time, I think, what he does not know is that the belief of the Chinese people does not confirm his judgments. He has no ideas of the Chinese people's steadfast belief in the pandemic and valiant attempt in the front line of the fight against the pandemic; he does not know that the Chinese people, to make China Dream a realization, a large number of role models emerge in the process of lifting poverty, and under their leadership, they finally achieve the goal of poverty alleviation; he is unaware that China is now working as one, striving for the new dream of the country.
 
A Conspirator With Ulterior Motives
Yang Fenggang desperately hopes that Christianity would spread widely in China, and that it would be better to turn China into a Christianized country. This is his hope and also the hope of the anti-Chinese forces behind him. He is not alone, as the saying goes. He gains the support and help of the anti-China forces in the US and western countries.
 
When comparing the modernization process of China with that of Europe and the United States, he once said that the modernization of Europe and the United States was usually preceded by the new round of religious revival and then followed by the great economic development. He believed that the lack of religious belief in China was one of the important reasons for the difficulty in improving the moral situation. This is his conspiracy theory. On the one hand, he ruthlessly denounces Chinese society having no faith. On the other hand, he believes that with the help of religious beliefs, more and more people becoming religious standards for the emergence of faith. His purpose is to infiltrate into Chinese society with the help of religions to achieve the ulterior goals of him and the interest group behind him.
 
It was difficult to realize the goal of Christianizing China, so Yang Fenggang has no alternative but to stand on the front stage. He actively contacts the media and accepts interviews with anti-China media such as "Voice Of America" in the name of scholars of religious sociology. Unsurprisingly, criticizing, abusing and attacking China's religious policy became an eternal topic. He has little knowledge of China's religious freedom policy. He has never visited Chinese churches. He even does not know that even as a foreigner in China, the freedom of religious belief is protected. Such a schemer, whose ideas and practices have deviated from the right track, tries to smear religious issues for political benefits and seeks to use Christianity to infiltrate China. However, all his practices will never succeed.
