Me and the Sister down by the school yard in the Catholic bookstore.
Sunday in the park, Beijing.
Ah, them hills smell good.
And speaking of the environment—pollution in Beijing when I was there was no worse those days than in Dallas or Houston, which isn’t to say that all three cities were not heavily polluted. All three cities are always heavily polluted as any doctor of pulmonary medicine in any one of the three cities will tell you.
Busy Beijing.
Young girl spins young boy in the barrel. You had to be there to appreciate it.
This kid at Millennium Park in Kaifeng was good–never missed.
I’m just wondering whether it’s true that Catholicism is safely thriving in China as I watched from a documentary?
Very much so! But relatively speaking in consideration of the population, Catholics still a tiny drop in the ocean so government doesnt’ seem to be the least concerned. But then—Chine still persecuting some of the Protestants that have to go underground in house churches, and have been famously brutal to religious movements that are peaceful and thriving, and of course they fear the Dahli Lama like he’s armed and dangers and looking to lord over the Republic. Go figure.
