PGC – The Chinese Communist Party is positioning itself to be the leading light of the world, the moral city on the hill that will grace all other nations with the benefits of socialism with Chinese characteristics. As such, it has to appear to be somewhat trustworthy, reliable, accountable, in positioning itself to be the new judge of the world.
This means it’s going to have to sanitize its internal brutality, through secrecy, and through managing a narrative within your allowable frames, which is what China has done by making moves that appear to be more ‘tolerant’ of other religions outside of the religion of Chairman Xi.
What China is really doing is forming some highly stripped down skeletons of some forms of religion, such as Christianity or Islam, but ones that ultimately give all authority, sovereignty, and final moral judgment to the party, and when the party is one man, such as it is right now, then to one man.
Chinese State Christianity recognizes the self-sacrificing aspect of Christ but none of His moral authority, for He is ultimately a shadow of the true faith in the end, and Chinese State Christians view a version of Super Chinese Socialist Christ as a model to become in service to the state, not God.
After decades of restricting religion, the Chinese Communist Party is carefully allowing its revival

Excerpt:
The Chinese Communist Party is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding in 1921. For most of those decades, the party sought to restrict or obliterate traditional religious practices, which it considered part of China’s “feudal” past.
But since the late 1970s, the party has slowly permitted a multifaceted and far-reaching revival of religion in China to take place. More recently, current Chinese president and Communist Party leader Xi Jinping has endorsed continued party tolerance for religion as filling a moral void that has developed amid China’s fast-paced economic growth.
This support does come with caveats and restrictions, however, including the demand that religious leaders support the Communist Party.
