Thousands in China are turning their back on communism in favour of obscure Christian sects, one of which worships a female Jesus - and is known to use violence to impose itself, writes Danny Vincent.

Jesus is back and she is opposed to the Chinese communist party.

The Chinese government calls the Church of Almighty God an evil cult. It's a million-strong doomsday sect that believe Jesus has returned to earth as a middle aged Chinese woman named Lightening Deng.

To ask of her whereabouts is "against the will of God", to question her preaching is "against the will of God" and to ask too many questions, is ,well "against the will of God", I am told by Samuel, a 39-year-old member and migrant worker from central China.

The group worship in secret, members never talk on mobile phones and they are banned by the Chinese government. But membership is growing.

Samuel found God in an underground church 10 years ago in his home town.

After converting to the Church of Almighty God he sold his home, gave the money to the sect and moved to Beijing to preach the word of a female Jesus, starting a new life away from his family.

The Church of Almighty God is just one of many off-shoot Christian sects across this atheist nation.

China has more Christians than communist party members. It's said that more Chinese attend Sunday mass than the whole of Europe combined.

Mr. Castro confirmed that he would travel to Panama in April for the Summit of the Americas, which Mr. Obama is also set to attend. A White House official said Saturday that there were no current plans for the two presidents to meet there.

Mr. Castro, wearing a traditional white shirt called a guayabera and only occasionally gesturing for emphasis, referred repeatedly to Mr. Obama, praising him personally while also emphasizing that with the process of real diplomacy just beginning, "the only way to advance is with mutual respect."

He insisted, as he and Fidel Castro have for years, that the United States not meddle in the sovereign affairs of the Cuban state.

Carlos Alzugaray Treto, a Cuban diplomat and educator, said Mr. Castro's strong wording, in a speech that is an annual event and rallying point, seemed to be mostly directed at his Communist Party loyalists.

"It's domestic politics," Dr. Alzugaray said.

He noted that, just as Mr. Obama must contend with Cuban-American lawmakers who are angry about the deal, Mr. Castro faces opposition from more conservative party members who recall that Cuba's previous stance, established in the 1960s, was to hold off resuming relations until the United States lifted its trade embargo completely.

"It's Ral reassuring certain people," Dr. Alzugaray said, adding that in both Cuba and the United States, the embryonic era of friendliness would need to be protected from those resisting reconciliation of any kind. "Obama more than Ral has initiated the first step, but other steps are needed."

Cuba: We'll stick with Communism

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) - Romania has changed dramatically in the 25 years since the people rose up against dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, executed him and began the slow transformation to a market economy and democracy.

Here are five ways that daily life has changed:

REGISTERED TYPEWRITERS TO SMART PHONES

Under communism, typewriters could not be bought in the shops, because the regime was fearful of people distributing anti-government manifestos. Those who had typewriters had to register them with the police every year and explain why they needed them.

Today even young children have smart phones and tablets and people enjoy high-speed Internet. One thing that has gone backward? Modern keyboards do not have diacritics and many don't bother to install the software to use the cedillas and accents that Romanian uses, a source of lament for language purists.

CARS BANNED IN WINTER....NOW PARKED ALL OVER THE SIDEWALK

Ceausescu rationed everything from bread to meat and gasoline. The few people who had cars could only get 20 liters (5.3 gallons) a month, often with waits at the pump of up to 48 hours. Private car use was banned altogether in the winter in the 1980s as Ceausescu squeezed people even further to pay off the country's foreign debt.

Today in Bucharest, where more than a tenth of the Romanian population lives, it can take two hours to cross the city when traffic is bad and cars clog the sidewalks, forcing pedestrians to walk in the road. Affluent families often have several cars, with SUVS being a favorite even though Bucharest has no hills or rough terrain. Some SUVS cost as much as an apartment.
