I made this picture any I like it so much, sorry.But on other hand, what do you think about three paths of Chinese philosophy: Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism? I'm gonna be real, I completely forgot about legalism and should've put it instead of communist.
>>222474745cool ochonestly dont know much about em but i know confucianism can get pretty retarded when you take it too seriously
>>222474745Taoism is giga based, Confucianism makes some good points. Buddhism is gay. That's about it.
>>222474745is Taoism the one where you have to preserve semen to store chi energy or some other bullshit?
>>222474874That stuff came later. Try reading Laozi's Tao Te Ching
>>222474745Taoism is the most based one.
>>222474745From my westoid point of view religion is worshipping certain deities and believing in certain myths so all the eastern beliefs blend into one in my mind
>>222475388you don't think a belief system resides in the myths and deities?Even something like the Iliad. To me, it says a lot about what the Greeks or broadly Europeans valued in life, how they thought the world ought to be, that the tempermental, cruel, vainglorious warriors and kings like Achilles and Agamemnon triumph over the loyal familyman Hector and the shepherd Paris, who foolishly chose love and fertility over sovereignty and military invulnerability when giving the golden apple.Not that I walk around thinking I'm Achilles, but it "teaches" me a lot more than a list of recommendations about being nice to your grandparents.
