==Confucius==
==Confucius==
That's a very good concise account, but I wonder if it worth mentioning that Confucius was an atheist (or at the very most, a confirmed agnostic)? The huge criticism of Confucianism is that its static nature and inability to cope with changing circumstances led to the stagnation and collapse of the Chinese empire in he late 19th/early 20th century; the Godlessness of Confucian doctrine is surely the explanatiuon for this fatal absence of dynamism.

: Atheism is a modern concept, and I don't think it applies in ancient times. But thanks for the suggestion.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 15:28, 11 February 2009 (EST)

The edit was reverted because it was not an improvement, and it had deleted a key date (thereby introducing a misleading time reference).--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 15:28, 11 February 2009 (EST)
