I cannot believe this is happening in todays China. Even if the gov doesnt like the christianity how is it significant that they cant just ignore it?
Before converting to it, they standardized it and shaped it to their convenience in the First Council of Nicaea. They also decided which books made it into the bible, and which ones were "apocryphal".
The Bishop of Rome became the Pope, and after the fall of the Roman empire, the Vatican still exerted a tremendous control: the pope could excommunicate anyone, including kings.
The Council of Nicaea actually didn't have anything to do with the Bible, despite what a lot of people say. By that point the Church had more or less reached a consensus on the canon after a couple hundred years of debate.
That's a bit far fetched claim. Apocryphal books are apocryphal for a reason, they didn't make into the canon as they couldn't have been written by witnesses of what happened at the beginning of our era - mentioned geographical places are wrong, mentioned historical events and people are messed up, language is wrong, etc.
It remains true that they decided which parts of existing and accepted Christian doctrine were true and which parts were no longer true.
It's not subversion but difference they fear / hate / fight against.
Attitudes like that come from strong nationalism and not enough education.
