"a cohort of stealth missionaries, one of whom taught a 'Bible as a reflection of Western Culture' course"

I am trying to read the news in the US today without throwing up....
Reminds me the title of one of the last songs of Leonard Cohen "You want it darker"

Missionaries bring this dark 1950's cloud with them. The bible is a reflection of everything that is dark in the Western Culture. I am surprised that the Chinese would accept such a course. I thought they were against missionaries teaching in China. Why do you think a course with such a title was allowed in their university? I can't think of any reason but obviously there was a big one.
