Confucianism is an ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucius

Confucianism originated as an "ethical-sociopolitical teaching" during the Spring and Autumn Period, but later developed metaphysical and cosmological elements in the Han dynasty.

Page 15: religions in asia

Confucianism is often characterized as a system of social and ethical philosophy rather than a religion.

In fact, Confucianism built on an ancient religious foundation to establish the social values, institutions, and transcendent ideals of traditional Chinese society. the sense of religious identity and common moral understanding at the foundation of a society's central institutions.

Confucianism was part of the Chinese social fabric and way of life; to Confucians, everyday life was the arena of religion.

The history of Taoism stretches

throughout Chinese history.

Shinto, roughly meaning "the way of the gods," is the traditional religion of Japan.

It centers upon the relationship between practitioners and a multitude of supernatural entities called kami who are associated with all aspects of life.

Page 21: religions in asia

Shinto ("the way of the Kami") is the name of the formal state religion of Japan that was first used in the 6th century C.E., although the roots of the religion go back to at least the 6th century B.C.E.

Shinto has no founder, no official sacred texts, and no formalized system of doctrine.

Shinto has been formative in developing uniquely Japanese attitudes and sensitivities, creating a distinct Japanese consciousness.

Islam isn't just a title or name of a religion, it's also a word in Arabic which is rich in meaning and has many connections to other fundamental Islamic concepts.

Understanding the concept of "Islam," or "submission," is critical to understanding the religion which derives its name from it — not only can it make critiques of Islam better informed, but there are in fact good reasons to critique and question Islam on the basis of the concept of submission to an authoritarian god.

The history of Islam concerns the religion of Islam and its adherents, Muslims. "Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits to God".

Muslims and their religion have greatly impacted the political, economic, and military history of the Old World, especially the Middle East, where its roots lie.

Though it is believed by non-Muslims to have originated in Mecca and Medina, Muslims believe that the religion of Islam has been present since the time of the prophet

Clearly, there is a religion called

Judaism, a set of ideas about the

world and the way we should

live our lives that is called

"Judaism."

Page 27: religions in asia

Judaism is a religious tradition with origins dating back nearly four thousand years, rooted in the ancient near eastern region of Canaan (which is now Israel and Palestinian territories).

Originating as the beliefs and practices of the people known as "Israel," classical, or rabbinic, Judaism did not emerge until the 1st century C.E.

Judaism traces its heritage to the covenant God made with Abraham and his lineage — that God would make them a sacred people and give them a holy land.

The three major branches of

Christianity are Roman Catholicism,

subcategories within each of these

branches.

the one who sustains human

beings. They believe that Jesus is

the son of God and he died so as

to save human beings from sin.

They believe in Eternal life after

death and resurrection.
