What's new

9.18

A Korean Christian pretending to be Chinese?

That's a new one, I guess people really are desperate. :rofl:

Not what I meant. I mean SK is a country completely taken over by Christianity and well it's pretty unpleasant.

Missionary Christianity was probably one of the most derisive influence on China in the 1800- early 1900. Christianity and Opium welded by the foreign powers destroyed order and what followed was 100 years of misery and chaos.

I don't mind Christians in general, I find them to be very nice people. :tup:

However you're right, do I find that some of these "newly converted" Chinese Christians to be a bit crazy. Sort of like "born-again" fundamentalists.

I don't either as long as they keep their proselytizing to themselves and respect the boundaries of law. But when it splits the loyalties of the Chinese nation and people it crosses over from a right to spiritual belief to a political force.
 
I think part of the reason why it is hard for Japanese politicians to apologise is because they are more dynastic than even the modern chinese government and they are not about to apologise for something their fathers or grandfathers are responsible for.

Japanese and Korean society tends to have a more closed political atmosphere than even china.

Links for remembering Japanese crimes
This documentary was five years in the making, and revolves around 62-year-old Okuzaki Kenzo, a survivor of the battlefields of New Guinea in World War II who gained notoriety by slingshooting steel pinballs at Emperor Showa to protest against what he considered to be the ruler's war crimes. Setting out to conduct interviews with survivors and relatives, he finds the truth of the past to be elusive, achieving a breakthrough only when he confronts ex-Sergeant Yamada, who grudgingly admits the occurrence and instructional source of certain atrocities



I also hold that unscrupulous bastard MacArthur responsible for making Japan's postwar denials possible.

Japanese people can often take Confucianism even more seriously than China does.

I read in the Economist, that there is a huge problem in Japan where "older people" in corporations automatically get more respect on account of their age. So even if their ideas are bad, they will get more authority due to their age.

That is warped thinking. Confucius advocate respecting elders and parents but he does not advocate blind fellowship.

You're right. :tup:

Maybe something got lost in translation when the Japanese adopted Confucianism.

I've always been curious about why the Japanese continuing to treat the Chinese as inferiors during the modern era despite the fact that their culture is heavily influenced by ours. Any one has any idea why?

Maybe they are taking vengeance for Pax Sinica?

Pax Sinica (Latin for "Chinese Peace") is the time of peace in East Asia, maintained by Chinese hegemony, usually the period of rule by the Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, early Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. These periods were characterised by the dominance of the Chinese civilization due to its political, economic, military and cultural power.

The difference is that during Pax Sinica, we Chinese never slaughtered tens of millions of Japanese people.

And I wonder why they still write using Han characters as well (Kanji). Surely the Japanese ultra-nationalists would have tried to get rid of them.
