Chinese Sect

I felt your Oct. 29 editorial, “Hands off Chinese Sect,” was misleading. Dozens of people died because their leader told them that they did not need medicine like insulin if they are diabetics, and that instead they only needed to practice Falun Gong. The leader of this organization also claimed that he could prevent the Earth from exploding, to save his followers.

The Chinese government canceled the cult to prevent what happened in a Japanese subway a year ago or the incident that happened in Waco, Texas. This should be considered as a responsible response for China’s people. I think the international community should praise this.
