Speaking of Jesus and, earlier, Marxists, it made me think of something I saw on TV once. It was an interview with a Chinese official who was defending his country’s crackdown on some folks on the basis that they were theists. It was something like, “They were theists promoting an evil theist ideology and that is unacceptable.” It was just funny to hear “theist” in that context. It’s rather foreign to the American ear. Or at least it is for now.
