【新唐人2011年9月16日讯】美国国务院在13号公布了《国际宗教自由报告》。国务卿希拉里表示，中国的宗教自由度在去年全年整体下降，而在今年，这方面的问题更趋严重。对此，宗教人士表示，中共想把所有宗教都管起来，只要觉得不受它控制它就镇压，是因为中共崇拜暴力与枪杆子，不相信信仰的神圣。
美国国务卿希拉里在谈到中国时表示，不同的宗教团体都可能受到中国（共）政府的干预。她说，西藏的佛教徒，新疆维吾尔族的穆斯林，以及各地的基督教家庭教会，全面承受中国（共）政府试图限制他们的宗教活动。
基督教人士、自由作家昝爱宗对此表示，中共政府想把所有的宗教管理起来，变成它的一个部门。他估计，中国信仰基督教的人数大约有7千万到8千万，但多数是不被官方承认的民间团体。
昝爱宗：“他都想把所有的宗教组织都控制起来，但是事实他控制不住。客观上形成了两种，一种是官方登记的，一种是民间自发的。 没有官方背景到外地去传播宗教信仰，可能受到当地的阻碍。”
“达赖喇嘛宗教基金会”董事长达瓦才仁表示，上千年的西藏佛教有它自己的一套制度、规则，却得按照中共的要求改变。当发现西藏佛教不愿意做出改变的时候，中共就采用暴力镇压。
达瓦才仁： “不愿意让藏传佛教按照传统的方式产生宗教领袖，它就按照像任命局长、科长一样任命西藏的喇嘛。它觉得不受它控制它就要镇压，至于你是否做了坏事，至于你是不是违反了法律，它完全不管。”
达瓦才仁分析，由于中共不相信信仰的神圣性和不可被侵犯，加上中共对暴力的崇拜，于是习惯用暴力镇压。
达瓦才仁：“它认为，任何事情，他只要有枪杆子，就一定要听我的指挥，包括信仰、包括神鬼，所有的事情，都必须要受他的支配。这就是有信仰的人完全没有办法和他们调和、完全没有办法共存的原因。所有血腥的镇压，所有的侮辱，所有的那些都是从这样一个根源上产生的。”
达瓦才仁认为，中共的镇压又有欺骗性，它对国际社会是一种面孔，对内则是血腥的镇压。它把信仰宣传成与巫医神汉同类，迫使西藏人攻击自己的信仰、僧人攻击达赖喇嘛，如果藏人有保护自己的行为都被挂上分裂的帽子。
达瓦才仁还表示，宗教是人类文明的重要组成部分，中国要想真正强大，必须要有信仰。
不过，中共对法轮功信仰的迫害，已经不是一般的宗教迫害。“追查国际组织”发言人汪志远表示，它属于“群体灭绝性”的迫害，
追查国际组织发言人汪志远:“他所犯的群体灭绝罪、反人类罪、酷刑罪。成千上万的、无以计数的法轮功学员被迫害致死、致残、致伤、失踪，还有更为惨烈的是，把法轮功学员作为活摘器官的来源，作为活的人体器官库处理。”
汪志远呼吁全世界各国政府、人权组织、正义人士，立即站起来制止这场还在中国发生的邪恶迫害。
汪志远还表示，“追查国际”对迫害法轮功的一切组织、机构和个人，都将追查到底。

Root of Religious Persecution in China
On September 13, the U.S. State Department issued
an International Religious Freedom Report.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, last year the degree
of religious freedom in China showed an overall decline.
While this year, the problem with this issue has worsened.
Religious people comment that Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) wants to control all religions in China,
and it will suppress any religion beyond its control.
This is because the CCP endorses violence and killing,
and does not believe in the sanctity of the belief.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressed that in China
different religious groups are likely to suffer intervention
by the CCP government. For instance, Tibetan Buddhists,
Uighur Muslims in Xinjiang and Christian Family Churches
across China, are all under the CCP’s restrictions
for their religious activities.
A Christian freelance writer Zan Aizong believes
that the CCP authorities want to control all religions in China,
turning them into its departments.
He estimates that the number of Chinese Christian believers
is about 70-80 million, but most of them are civilian groups
that have never been officially recognized by the CCP.
Zan Aizong: “The CCP wants to control all the religious
organizations. But in reality, this was beyond its capability.
So far in China exist two types of religious groups.
One is officially registered, and the other is purely civilian.
Without CCP recognition religious groups wanting to spread
religion to other places can meet with local obstacles.”
Dawa Tsering, Dalai Lama Religious Foundation Chairman,
said that Tibetan Buddhism, with a thousand years of history,
has its own set of system and rules, but it is forced
to change as to meet the CCP’s standards,
and that when Tibetan Buddhism was not willing to do so,
the CCP suppressed it by force.
Dawa Tsering: “CCP was reluctant to allow Tibetan Buddhist
to select their religious leader in the traditional way.
It wanted to appoint the Tibetan lamas as it appoints
a bureau chief or a section chief.
In the CCP’s logic, as long as a religious group
is not under its control, it will suppress it.
As to whether you do evil deeds or break the law,
the CCP completely ignores that.”
According to Dawa Tsering’s analysis,
as the CCP does not believe in the sanctity of a faith,
this combined with its worship of violence, results
in the CCP being accustomed to suppression by force.
Dawa Tsering: “The CCP believes that it can command
everything with guns, including beliefs and gods.
This is the reason for suppressing those faith believers
who have no way to reconcile or coexist with the CCP.
All the bloody repressions, all of the insults
have such a root cause.”
Dawa Tsering thinks that CCP’s suppressions are deceitful.
It shows one face to the international community,
but launches bloody repressions
towards domestic civilians.
He said that the CCP intentionally mixes concepts
of beliefs and witch craft, forcing Tibetans to attack
their own faith and monks to attack the Dalai Lama.
If a Tibetan doesn’t do so, he is labeled Tibetan separatist.
Dawa Tsering believes that religion is an important part
of human civilization,
and that to get truly strong,
China must have beliefs in its land.
As for the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong,
it is far beyond the concept of religious persecution.
Wang Zhiyuan, Spokeman of World Organization to
Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG),
said that the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong
is classified as a crime of genocide.
Wang Zhiyuan: “The CCP committed genocide,
crimes against humanity, torture and the like.
Thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been
persecuted to death, disability, injury and are missing.
And more horrifying, the CCP is harvesting the organs
of alive Falun Gong practitioners,
keeping them as a source of live human organs,
a pool of human organs.”
Wang Zhiyuan appealed that governments around the world,
human rights organizations and kindhearted people
stand up to stop as soon as possible this evil persecution
that still continues happening in China.
Wang Zhiyuan expressed that WOIPFG will investigate
the criminal conduct of all institutions, organizations,
and individuals involved in the persecution of Falun Gong,
to full closure.
