A friend told me about "muslim terrorists" in the North West of China some years ago when I asked him if there were any areas of China I shouldn't visit.

Islamic supremacists at war with the world are threatening to send humanity into a hell we cannot imagine. The stage has been set. Western progressive countries have stopped growing and poverty-ridden societies are spreading rapidly. The only large militarily strong and economically growing society in the world today is the People�s Republic of China .

Stupidity, thy name is jihad
Self-centered jihadists seem to not realize that defeating the United States , most likely by bankrupting its economy or with a smuggled nuclear device, would be the worst thing they could possibly do to themselves. Without a United States to protect them, the jihadists would be fully exposed. A militant, totalitarian China would be the only superpower left in the world. It is inconceivable that China wouldn�t take great advantage of this position. For starters, poorly defended, oil-rich Arab countries would be easy prey for oil-hungry China . Small-time terror-funding sheiks wouldn�t even know what hit them.

China : Looking for "lebensraum"
Officially atheist China has quietly become an aggressive and belligerent country convinced of its own supremacy and centrality in the world. Suicidal Muslim psychotics pose little threat to a robust China . China has 1.3 billion people, or one fifth of the world�s population,�more than enough to conquer a fractured world. The Chinese rulers are as ruthless as Hitler�but with 20 times his population at hand. China has an aggressive eugenics program and now has one of the highest IQ averages in the world, as well as a large population of educated and indoctrinated citizens. Even suicidal jihadists are afraid of China , evidenced by how little they support beleaguered Muslim Uighurs in Western China . With such a large energetic population, it takes little imagination to see why China covets vast foreign territory and would halt at nothing to take it, given the chance.

Holocaust Redux
Still communist, Red China has revamped the �total war� concept, meaning nothing is off limits. The Geneva Conventions are but silly rules to China . Total liquidation of non-Chinese populations is not improbable from the Chinese government. With a world thrown in to chaos by crude Islamic fascists, combined with the killing power of today�s weapons, the world could be remade in China �s image very soon.
China is building its military at an unprecedented rate. Although China has said it is not averse to absorbing a nuclear retaliation, it is also working on technologies such as electromagnet- pulse bombs and nanotechnology that could knock out America �s last defense of nuclear weapons before they could even launch.
Once in command, the secretive technocrat Han-supremacists that rule China �far more efficient than Muslim supremacists�would not hesitate to rewrite world history and airbrush everyone but Hans out.

Jihadists have no hope against China
Red China is the hegemonic gorilla that even suicidal Muslims fear, if only subconsciously, because of its power and equal unconcern for individual lives. China has the will to wipe every non-Han Chinese person off the globe, and Muslims are unwittingly acting as the catalyst. Muslims have no hope against Chinese manufacturing. Muslims cannot walk around freely in Beijing as they do in London . They cannot manipulate principals of human rights or freedom of the press, because those don�t exist in China . Without a West to defend them, Muslims will have met not only their Waterloo with China , but their Auschwitz .

Answers to those questions are outside my area of expertise Smile

But a comment in passing from one of the teachers to be married hinted at some such policy, "Stupid people cannot get married". And I think she was referring to those with mental incapacity/disability.
As mentioned, the one child policy doesn't apply to Chinese minority peoples (like the Uighurs) nor, to those outside the cities. My colleague above has a younger sister who visits the staff room and that's because the family is from a town/village outside the main city and if the first born is a girl, then the family can have a second child.
But what goes on behind doctors' doors with questioning of a couple's genetic history or how many children born outside of marriage there are I don't know.

Rum Jungle:

The available information on this subject is somewhat contradictory. There seems to be an ongoing debate about whether or not China's laws are eugenic in nature.

OTOH: Thanks for the links.

There do appear to be contradictions especially btw the Chinese scholar's assertion that a marriage can still occur after a doctor advising against and my colleague's insistence that it cannot.

Could be:-
1) Mistranslation/misunderstanding on my part, although the words, "Stupid people cannot get married", seem to indicate direct prohibition by the State.
2) The teacher herself, in her early 20s, has mistakenly interpreted the law as prohibiting marriage when actually it does not.
3) The law is clear in allowing marriage despite a doctor's advice but the implementation of that law is disregarded by local government.

Alas, school holidays now, so I can't quiz the newlywed colleague(s) to try and clear up the contradiction until they return in late August!

Interesting discussion. My semi-educated speculation is that these Chinese laws are implemented and enforced in sort of the same way that the Korean government implements and enforces(for example) the laws on visa requirements post-Christopher Neale, ie. something gets announced, which may or may not be an official law, and the folks on the ground interpret it in any number of ways.
