Jimmy Lai’s Conviction Exposes Global Apostasy from Christ’s Social Kingship
Catholic News Agency reports the conviction of Jimmy Lai, a 78-year-old Catholic media mogul, under China’s national security laws. The article details Lai’s five-year imprisonment, his family’s appeals to international bodies, and support from figures including Donald Trump and various Catholic institutions. Lai’s daughter Claire recounts his alleged Marian devotion, stating: “Our Lady is protecting him” after he reportedly regained strength through prayer when falling in prison. The piece frames Lai’s prosecution as persecution for “courageous journalism and unwavering commitment to democracy,” with his legal team calling the verdict “a stain on a once enviable Hong Kong legal system.”
