It's very disturbing to me, as an American, that the Empire State building lights would be used in this way. What, exactly, are we honoring? Communist China's stellar record on human rights? Their forced abortions, allowing only 1 child per family? Their oppression of the Christian church, since it preaches a God (and higher authority) other than civil government?Sadly, perhaps we do have a reason to honor them. The Chinese are some of the biggest investors in our national debt, buying our Treasury bonds in enormous numbers. From a Biblical perspective, what is the relationship between debtor and lender? And so perhaps, we light the building as a vassal honors its Lord.
A quote from the article: "That doesn't seem right." No, IT ISN'T RIGHT! And so goes another small part of our liberty as we pay homage to monstrous tyranny.
