The Beijing Olympics may provide a prime target for protest for evangelical Christians, according to the International Herald Tribune. Three issues should be high on the Christian grievance agenda when athletes gather in a revitalized and polished Beijing in 2008.
--China must end its state sponsored persecution of Christian and grant total religious liberty if it is to be respected member of the international community.
--China should use its oil-buying leverage to pressure Sudan to end its sponsoring of bloodshed in Darfur.
--China must restrict its emission of CO2, which is contributing to global warming. China is now the leader CO2 polluter (the U.S. is 2nd).
