Christianity is always a rarity in China. Mainly for two reasons:
1) Buddhism and Confuciusm have long become native religions who are much more influential so that Christianity still sounds more "foreign" ;
2) Karl Marx the Communist Master said in one of his articles that "relligion is the opium of the people". He may have his reasons but the early communists took his gossip as gosple so Christianity had been regarded as poison for quite a long time until 1990's.

For these reasons each year upon Christmas, churches here turn into occeans of people, with curiousers much larger in number than real believers.  The Christians's Association has to distribute licenses for believers and get cops to check that only people who have church licenses can be permitted to enter the churches around Christmas.

There is a Roman Catholic church no far away behind our company. Today is Christmas Eve so I ran for the church immediately after work. In the twlight I suddenly felt that the church looks pretty like those cathedral levels in Heretic and Hexen! (Also like Hammerite churches in Thief). For almost 8 years I've been believing that Heretic and Hexen are the best FPS games as well as the best Raven games for all time. They are not only games. They are a legend! A religion! And both Heretic II and Hexen II seem to have lost the original spirit of their forefathers!

I'm praying for the return of Heretic and Hexen!  :(
