BEIJING (AP) Chinese authorities launched a campaign to lure Tibet's fervently Buddhist people to atheism to undermine support for the Dalai Lama, a human rights group reported. The campaign is the first to promote atheism among ordinary Tibetans since disastrous efforts to wipe out religion during China's radical Cultural Revolution 30 years ago. Launched early this month, the campaign is supposed to show Tibetans the practical benefits atheism has for economic development. Many Tibetans remain loyal to the Dalai Lama, who fled Tibet in 1959 following a failed uprising against Chinese rule.
