中国主教敦促天主教会与共产党结盟,忽视被拘留的主教。 Chinese bishop urges aligning Catholic Church with Communist Party, ignoring detained bishops.
政府任命的中国主教约瑟夫·沈斌(Joseph Shen Bin)在最近的一次会议上强调天主教会与中国共产党意识形态保持一致, Chinese Bishop Joseph Shen Bin, appointed by the government, emphasized aligning the Catholic Church with Chinese Communist Party ideology during a recent conference, ignoring the plight of detained or disappeared bishops. 这种“思潮化”促进国家对宗教的控制,引起人们对宗教自由的关切。 This "Sinicization" promotes state control over religion, raising concerns about religious freedom. 2018年梵蒂冈-中国协定规定,主教应由梵蒂冈批准,但沈斌是未经其批准安装的,引起批评。 The 2018 Vatican-China agreement stipulates bishops should be approved by the Vatican, but Shen Bin was installed without their approval, sparking criticism.
