China has in recent years arrested and detained Christian leaders of underground churches, who are not registered with the government and under its control.

      Neat article, but I don’t understand the connection.

        If they are underground, it’s because their message is not quite orthodox.
        And China takes a radical, zero tolerance approach to churches since the 2014 Kunming attack (not saying it was better before).
        The idea is they want to avoid a situation like the mosques in France that were used as recruiting grounds for future terrorists.

          Thanks for the context.

          Unfortunately I don’t know enough about the issue to comment on China’s policy, and I know that any information I find (including the article I posted) is going to have gaping plot holes.
