China is destroying mosques and turning it into public toilet and convenience stores. 70 % of the mosques in northwest territory of China has been destroyed. A mosque in China called Azna mosque was torn down and turned into a convenience stores, where they sells cigarettes and alcohol. This was done by the Chinese Communist Party as a deliberate insult as consumption of alcohol and cigarettes is prohibited in Islam.
China has released a mosque consolidation policy, which meant that any mosque within 2.5 km of each other will be destroyed or merged. Around 16000 mosque have been destroyed since 2017. The government of China says the reason for such action is to reject religious extremism from happening and for the minorities to adapt into Chinese culture.
Reports of China converting mosques to public toilets first emerged in August 2020, when it was revealed that a public toilet had been constructed on the site of the demolished Tokul mosque in Suntagh village, Atush city, in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
The demolition of mosques and their conversion to other uses, including public facilities like toilets, cafes, or "cultural centers," is part of a broader "Mosque Rectification" or "Sinicization" campaign that was launched in late 2016. This campaign involves the mass closure, destruction, and alteration of Islamic religious sites in China, particularly in the Xinjiang region, as part of a systematic effort to curb the practice of Islam and assert state control.

@Cliff-Mashburn saidIndeed. Chinese are big-time pork lovers.
@Rajk999
Should turn them into butcher shops specializing in pork products....
@Rajk999 saidMosques, churches,....all the same. (Although you'd be lamenting of course if it was the latter).

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidGlad you asked. Blind religious tolerance is for fools. In the UK for example, the British preach religious tolerance, and that people must accept Islam, because like you, they believe all religions are the same and should be tolerated. In the meantime Muslims are teaching their kids to kill infidels and unbelievers, like you.
Where is the religious tolerance in your OP?
The Chinese are wise and Europe is going to have to wisen up otherwise they will end up like so many other places where Christians are being beheaded.
So cut the religious tolerance BS.

Surely you must understand that there are extremists and fanatics in all faiths. I'm always uneasy when beneath the guise of 'considered thought' - as many of your posts masquerade under - you are simply making and repeating huge generalizations. Essentially, there are around 2 billion Muslims - human beings each with their own thougths/dreams/ideas etc. etc. that you happily consign as one generalized 'lump.' Surely you must appreciate the weakness of this line of argument - along with its obvious appeal to those who can't (or won't) consider the complexities of the situations/ people you discuss?
@beardmusic saidIts only people who are Muslim, or who know nothing of the evil nature of Islam, will make such a statement.

Do you think something is wrong with the Chinese government?
What about all the people in Europe who are warning others about Islam?
Are they are all incorrect?
@beardmusic saidGood post.

May your beard always be full of music.
@Rajk999 saidWe have already established the 'killing unbelievers' passage has been taken out of context and doesn't call for modern Muslims to go around killing unbelievers. Why are you still peddling this nonsense? - Is it because you have nothing factual to contribute?

I'm saying they are making generalizations that might make them (and yourself) feel better but (due to their simplistic/ reductionist nature) have little bearing on the 'reality' they claim to be discussing. As I said you are talking (generalizing) about 2 billion human beings, inevitability this involves a simplistic projection (of your own fears etc.) onto these people who (as individuals) bear little resemblance to the broad claims you are making. This should be worth keeping in mind at least!
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidYou established no such thing. Modern Muslims are in fact killing, raping and beheading unbelievers all over the world. It is supported and encouraged in the Quran. I aready posted FACTS of killings in the hundreds of thousands in Nigeria, Congo, Sudan Yemen .,, something is wrong with you.

Yes?
Does it matter to the victims of these atrocities how many Muslims are NOT killing them?
WTF does that have to do with anything?

Unless you apply the same 'logic' to all other religions then yes it is irrelevant. Was the Iraq invasion of 2003 led by the 'Christian' Bush indicative of all Christians? If not why not? Your point is weak and merely reinforces your own prejudices/ assumptions by erroneously extrapolating from individual/ particular cases to the general/ universal. I understand the appeal of this 'method' as it is very common but as far as reasoning goes it is feeble and lacking coherency.
