You would think Washington Post columnist Max Boot knows the basics about China, but his latest column gives me doubt. That column on atheism and politics posits: “Most of China’s 1.4 billion people have no religious affiliation, and fewer than 7 percent are monotheists. Is there any reason to believe that China is a less moral place than the United States, where 70.6 percent profess to be Christians?”

Well yes, Max, I would suggest there are many reasons to believe so.
