How should we react to the latest human rights abuse in China?
Yuan Weijing, wife of activist Chen Guangcheng, has herself been arrested on the way to the Philippines to receive an award for her husband.
He has been imprisoned for exposing corruption and abuse in the “One Child Policy” including forced sterilizations and involuntary abortions.
Under the communist government’s one-child policy, urban dwellers are allowed one child and rural families can have two if the first is a girl.
Ruthless enforcement has triggered widespread opposition, especially in the countryside.
But Communist Party officials and the rich often ignore the law themselves.
Yuan has said that Chen, who is blind, had been severely beaten in prison.
Human Rights Watch had previously labeled her husband’s case an example of the “significant deterioration” of rights in Communist China.
Shouldn’t those who value human rights consider a boycott of China?

Many people have the same take that you do but its my opinion that it is the USA that has the advantage.
China could certainly cause a devaluation of the dollar but that might well be good for our economy. It would be very bad for the Chinese because the dollars they hold represent their profits.Devalue the dollar and they devalue their own holdings.
Moreover, the Chinese economy would be destroyed if exports to the USA ceased for even a very brief time.
The complete panic they are currently experiencing over health and safety concerns by Americans proves this.
The bottom line is that the USA could revert to manufacturing all its own consumer goods at any time but China’s economy cannot exist in the absence of the American market.

Why do Christians belittle the human aspect of EVERYTHING?
christians beliefs:
overcoming drug addiction = miracle by god’s grace
rescue from burning building by firefighter = miracle by god’s grace
cancerous cells diminish = miracle by god’s grace
winning of grammy/oscar = miracle of god’s grace
winning the superbowl = miracle of god’s grace
rekindling relationship with loved one = miracle of god’s grace
surviving a seriously car accident = miracle of god’s grace
human qualities/spirit, common sense, logic beliefs:
overcoming drug addiction = person becomes aware, intervention of loved ones, goes thru rehab, etc. (human aspects)
rescue from fire = will of firefighters, determination to save a life, fulfilling job/promise to community, etc (human aspects)
cancerous cells diminish = advancements in treatments, administering medicine/chemotherapy, detecting cancer in first place, etc. (human aspects)
AND SO ON, AND SO ON.
christians, COMPLETELY DISCOUNT THE HUMAN ASPECT OF EVEYTHING THAT HAPPENS. AND THEY KNOW IT.
Significance of Human Touch in Alcohol Addiction Recovery
More often than not, sadly enough, life seems to take the shape of a burden for people suffering from alcohol addiction. Addiction, of any kind, tends to impose a sort of binding or compulsion in the lives of the addicts. Limiting you to a constrained focus, it almost confines you to a small cage, debarring you from leading a free thinking life and making your life a continuous source of pain and struggle. Having to engage yourself in a constant battle against the curse of your existence, you even tend to lose your memory. An alcohol addiction treatment center can come to your rescue in such pathetic situation.
It is a bane that being an alcohol addict you learn to shy away from living life to the fullest. Life is all about knowing and learning new and interesting experiences. It is a continuous process like an infinite and uninterrupted journey, where you constantly seek to delve into the depths of knowledge. Getting yourself addicted alcoholically means you lose out on the merits of a good and healthy life; you miss out on the ecstasy of enlightenment and understanding.
In fact, life should ideally be savored bit by bit, with gratitude, as it has lots to offer. The bits and pieces of experiences in life help you build your character, making a complete person out of you. However, a person suffering from addiction is in no position to show any signs of gratitude whatsoever. Being enmeshed in addiction you tend to eschew feelings that are sources of pain; you are more likely to shove the blame on others rather than taking the onus on yourself. Leave aside gratitude, you are not even capable of taking your own responsibility.
Instead of resolving to be proactive and make the most of whatever life has for you, you lead the life of dependence and shame. Instead of trying to seek for answers within yourself you aimlessly search outside. You should be happy from within to realize the meaning of life and gratitude irrespective of whatever the circumstances are.
However, the alcohol addiction rehab center is something that lends a helping hand to bring you out of your cocooned life of ignominy and despair. The medical staff there are angels in shape of doctors and counselors. They know that it is only through human touch and feel that an alcohol addict can move towards recovery. Showing demonstrative signs of care, attention and compassion can turn around things miraculously.
The medicos at the rehab centers work delicately towards the making of a bond with the patient. An emotional reliability is what you are looking for at this moment and here are the few good people to help you out. Through human touch and interaction with your medical therapist you develop a sense of sharing and understanding. This further helps your doctor to bring out the real human being within you. Ensuring first class drug abuse rehab facilities, the therapeutic programs comprise undying love, affection and understanding meted out by the medical specialists. Their untiring efforts see you through the agony of alcohol addiction and help you walk the path of normalcy once again. You begin to see a glimmer of gratitude within you.
