Will China ever be a "normal" country, a country not ruled by a Leninist party and the mythology of Marxism-Leninism?  Many commentators have been pessimistic, pointing to Beijing's continuing crackdown on dissent and the regime's well-practiced skills of political and social control.  But one scenario of peaceful change is the infiltration of society by an ever-growing number of adherents of a different worldview: Christianity.   Join us as former Beijing Bureau chief for Time magazine, David Aikman, discusses the current state of Christianity in China, its future, and its impact.
