	Righteous Harmony Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Righteous Harmony Society (Traditional Chinese: 義和團, Simplified Chinese: 义和团; pinyin: Yìhétuán); was a society in China that executed the unsuccessful Boxer Rebellion in the closing years of the 19th century.
		They were anti-foreign (originally against the government, but eventually turning against the Christian converts and the colonizing foreign powers).
		More likely though, their name was mistranslated as Fists of Righteous Harmony (Traditional Chinese: 義和拳; Simplified Chinese: 义和拳; Hanyu Pinyin: Yìhéquán; Wade-Giles: I-Ho Ch'üan), which still appears in western encyclopediae.

	ON TARGET with Mr. G -- Separation vs. "Official Atheism"
		The so-called Boxer Rebellion was an outburst against foreign interventionism; it was orchestrated by the Fists of Righteous Harmony, who blended a martial philosophy with eastern mysticism.
		While Atheists may see the separation of church and state as a beneficial condition which balances the rights of people to believe and express whatever they choose with the those who disagree, it is questionable that all or most religious groups can live with such an arrangement.
		It does, however, when embraced as a robust legal principle, go a long, long way in guaranteeing all their right to freedom of speech, and to remain free from the doctrinal strictures of sectarian groups.

		In 1900 the I Huo Chuan (or Righteous Harmony Fists), whom the foreigners knew as the 'Boxers', were murdering Chinese Christians and spreading anti-foreign outrage.
		If Kinnear is right, then Nee was in the same boat as the World Council of Churches, who have accepted the legitimacy of the TSPM from the beginning (and still do), as have most of the Protestant mission based churches.

		The wholesale conversion of Chinese to Christianity threatened the very fabric of Chinese society, and fostered tension, violence and near civil war between traditional Chinese and the Chinese Christian converts.
		Beginning initially as a popular movement against the "foreign devils" the "Fists of Righteous Harmony" (called by Europeans the "Boxers") were quickly and covertly supported by Tsu His as they rampaged through China killing foreigners, destroying Christian missions, and slaughtering Chinese Christians in a effort to eject all foreigners from Chinese soil.
		Eventually the legations of the foreign powers in Peking (now called Beijing) were brought under siege by the Boxers, and the foreign powers intervened, sending expeditionary forces to relieve their missions (and not incidentally to wring further concessions from Tsu His).

		Placing faith in Woodrow Wilson’s talk about freedom and democracy, and the “inalienable right of self-determination” of all nations, the Chinese government entered the war against the Central Powers on August 4, 1917, hoping at the end of the war to achieve complete independence.
