- MAjor problem with confusian philosophy if I remember my eastern civilization
- class was it has a habit of stagnating a culture into thinking that there is
- nothing new (remember old dark age thoought by St. Augustine of Hippo: That
- there is no new info in the world..) in the world. Well gues what happened when
- the Europeans got there, they pounded the chinese nation into the ground and
- took what ever they wanted.. Japan had similiar problems, different or almost
- similiar causes, but similiar outcome, they stagnated, gave away their over
- seas posessions/colonies.. Yes the chinese and japanese once had over seas
- colonies before the west came to them c.1500ad..
-
- Basically saying that confusion thought and Taoist thought is not all good.
- Also the chinese kill a small number of girl babies every year or produce
- more babies to get that "special son"..
-
- Yes saying "BULL SHIT" as a previous poster said is not very nice and violates
- ediquite (sp), but come now all, can't we be adults and keep our obnoxius
- comments about the parentage and such to our own private email boxes..

- Sorry about this all, point I might want to make, is just becuase soemthnig
- works or doesn't work in one country, does not mean it will work or not work in
- another.. We must llok at cultures in full and not in part to get the full
- feel and reasons for why, and such..
