Go to the new Fu De second hand market, near the new South Bus Station. (A couple blocks south of the south train station.) Easiest way to get there: bus #127, caught somewhere along Long Quan Lou or Yi-er-yi Street. If you head south on Qing Nian Rd., keep going south after it turns in Nan Ba Rd., and go through the big clover leaf. It should be on your right, as you head south. It more or less replaces the 2d hand market that used to be on Bai Yun Rd. Lots of 2d hand bikes, computers, etc., etc.

Someone like Dobson.
I'm old enough to remember when Southern Baptists included White supremacy as a *BIG* part of their Gospel. I remember lynching, too. It was curiously popular in those regions were Southern Baptists were very common. The usual offence: being Black and too successful.

American conservative group makes inroads into China's classrooms
Posted byBBC World Service recently did a two part documentary on Christianity in China. Apparently some of the national level leaders have been suckered into believing that there's some kind of connection between Protestantism and development/wealth/power. The loathsome Health&Wealth Gospel is just a step away!
Lots of educated Chinese people are quite blind to the flaws and problems of US life.
