If China had converted to Catholicism in the 18th century, they’d be on Alpha Centauri now barbecuing ET. 300 years of stagnation, eastern obscurantism, and barbaric communism avoided.

>>18589179>brown people are still convinced Catholicism made them brown and retarded through magic
>>18589152>barbaric communismComplete horseshit. In no universe did 45 million+ people die in the Great Leap Forward. This is done by taking declining birth rates, projecting them forward, then claiming 45 million more would exist in China today, if the GLF didn't happen. It's not even Deaths, but projected growth rates.Pre Mao China had a death rate of over 49:1000 and Child mortality rate of over 300:1000Under Mao this was brought down to 10.8:1000 and a Child mortality rate of 50:1000.Great Leap Forward had a death rate of 25.4:1000, for comparison, the death rate in India at the same time was 24:1000, so barely any difference.The Great Leap Forward was a disaster, and reversal of several years of gains, but it's massively exaggerated in Western pop historiography and it's death rates were well within the realms of developing countries at the time.
>>18589152Japan never converted to Christianity and it's better than every catholic majority country on earth
>>18589152Meanwhile in the 21st century, China powers ahead in AI while the Pope seethes at it (because the idiots who need answers to everything from a magic man market, which is most Christians, has been captured by chatGPT)
