Hephaestus Books represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Hephaestus Books continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. This particular book is a collaboration focused on Christianity in China.More info: Christianity in China is a growing minority religion that comprises Protestants (called J d ji o Christ Religion or X n ji o New Churches), Catholics ( Ti n zh ji o Lord of Heaven Religion), and a small number of Orthodox Christians. Although its lineage in China is not as ancient as beliefs such as Confucianism, Taoism, or Mahayana Buddhism, Christianity has existed in China since at least the seventh century and has gained influence over the past 200 years. The growth of the faith has been particularly significant since the loosening of restrictions on religion by the People's Republic since the 1970s. Religious practices are still often tightly controlled by government authorities. Chinese over age 18 in the PRC are permitted to be involved with officially sanctioned Christian meetings through the China Christian Council, Three-Self Patriotic Movement or the Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association. Many Chinese Christians also meet in unregistered house church meetings. Reports of sporadic persecution against such Christians in Mainland China have caused concern among outside observers.
