Well,the Khampas a Tibetan tribe did fight against the Chinese occupation army,bravely too. The Khampas were either massacred or fled to India. The Chinese crushed a rebellion in Lhasa about 2 or 3 years ago. The Chinese are bent on subjugating Tibet and erasing its culture and religion.

why? what bad thing have the Tibetans done to China?

Nothing whatsoever!! The Chinese simply feel that they are a superior race and that Tibet belongs to them and not to Tibetans.Moreover,the Tibetans are followers of the Buddhist religion.This creates dangerous conditions for the communist repressive regime of China,which feels that Buddhism may once again spring up in China.

thats real crazy, we should be preserving and celebrating diversity of culture, not destroying it.

The Khampas rebelled against the Chinese in 1961. They were forced to flee to India,along with the Dalai Lama,soon thereafter.Tibet has simmered since then.

The communist regime does not tolerate any Religion. Therefore associated culture is also taboo.

Why don't you try to become one of these bhuddists if you are so

See, this is why I think it's wildly ironic that someone who is of another religion proves himself to be a much better disciple of Christ than those who identify themselves as Christian.

Would you say the same thing about Paul who said "the Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies".

Even by comparison no Christian posting in this forum comes close to what the naysayers say. That includes you. Hypocrite.
