Would China have been better off if the Taiping rebels had won?

It'd be very hard to determine this objectively. If you think Christianity is good and communism is bad (like me), the obvious answer is yes. If you are a Maoboo, the answer is no.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiping_Rebellion#Origins

"Qing-dynasty China in the early to mid-19th century suffered a series of natural disasters, economic problems and defeats at the hands of the Western powers, in particular the humiliating defeat in 1842 by the British Empire in the First Opium War. Farmers were heavily overtaxed, rents were rising, and peasants were deserting their lands in droves.[16] These problems were only exacerbated by a trade imbalance caused by the large-scale illicit import of opium.[17] Banditry was becoming more common, as were secret societies and self-defense units, all of which led to an increase in small-scale warfare.[18] Meanwhile, the population of China had exploded, nearly doubling between 1766 and 1833, while the amount of cultivated land was stagnant.[19] The government, led by ethnic Manchus, was seen by many Han Chinese as ineffective and corrupt. Anti-Manchu sentiments were strongest in southern China among the Hakka community, a Han Chinese subgroup.[20]"

Holy shit.

>Taliban separates the genders and bans women's education

>Taiping separates the genders to create all female fighting units, barracks and education program

Are you retarded?

That's assuming it would qualify as Christianity.
If Mormonism can't make the cut I don't see this strange Chinese syncretism ever being accepted as mainstream.
