Default Human Rights? Who cares! Bible Publisher prints Bibles in Anti-Christian China

http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/10/82004b.asp

"AgapePress) - A major U.S. publisher of Bibles is coming under fire for having some of its Bibles printed in China, where Christians are being tortured and even killed for their faith. The move is being criticized by a human-rights organization that is skeptical of the company's safeguards against employee abuse."

The subtext here is interesting. Mosher has long been a strident critic of China. There was a flap several years ago when apparently the Gov't of China tried to put pressure on his Univ to prevent it from giving him a PHD. As I recall he has close connections to the Kuomintang in Taiwan.
