In Episode 3 we discuss Taoism.
It’s often said that there are three religions in China – Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. But that statement isn’t referring to 3 different groups. As we’ve seen in the previous episodes, the religions of the East interconnect and merge and contradict each other all the time. So it’s said that for morals, the Chinese look to Confucianism; for spiritual experiences and mysticism, they look to Taoism. And for after-death needs
they look to Buddhism.
Taoism has two forms. There is a philosophical form, and there is a religious form which offers all sorts of different gods. In his episode we focus on philosophical Daoism.
It's our prayer that each of these conversations strengthen your confidence in the better story told by Christianity, helping to dispel your doubts, and drawing you closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.
