Chinese Religion

Introduction

• Religion was very important to the people of
  China because they would practice the many
  different parts and they had many beliefs. One
  part of religion is the laughing Buddha. The
  laughing Buddha is a sign if fertility and
  abundance. Another part of religion is Tai Chi
  which was invented a very long time ago in the
  12th century. In my opinion there is many things
  to learn about religion in China.

The Three Ways

• There are three major parts of religion in China.
  One of those three parts is Buddhism which has
  two meanings. Another part is Confucianism which
  is teaching respect. The last part is Daoism
  which was emerged in the war of states period.
  Chinese religion is really interesting because
  they use things in their religion we dont use in
  our religion!

What Is Buddhism?

• Do you know what Buddhism is? Well know you do.
  Buddhism has two different parts to it. One part
  is meditation. The other part is the belief of
  the afterlife. Buddhism was not originally from
  China. It was brought to china in the first
  century from India. Buddhism is one of the three
  ways.

Conclusion

• Chinas religion is different than our religion,
  yet it is the same. One way they are different is
  that they use the laughing Buddha and we dont.
  One way they are the same is that both countries
  celebrate Holy Communion. This is how these
  countries religions are the same yet different!
