After learning more about the Chinese culture and beliefs, it is interesting to see their kinds of philosophies and beliefs. This week as we talked about Taoism, I realized that there were some aspects in it that sounded appealing. For example, the fact that they believe in a life of simplicity which sounds very nice. Also, the fact not to worry about anything, being content, and being yourself. Those were a few aspects of Taoism that I thought were appealing. When we read the "Pooh" book this week, I thought the simple lifesyle of Pooh sounded very nice. However there are also some aspects of Taoism that I don't really agree with. For example, they believe that the world is unchanging and that we are not to interfere with it at all. As christians, we are called to make a difference in this world, to go out and bring others to Christ. I found this week beneficial because now I have a better understanding of the Chinese culture and religion.
