中国传统文化重人远神的思想理念足以开出一种真实而坚定的理性主义思维方式,而这种理性主义的世界观与方法论则是一贯而绝对的无神论精神之根源与本质。孔子的思想虽然与有神论观点并不构成直接而公开的对立,但由他所阐述和发扬的思想传统,本质上属于一种无神论的思维方式。遵循这种传统,根本容不下一个外在于人的、人格化的至上神存在,因而儒学按其本质来说必然要与宗教有神论分道扬镳。今天我们要弘扬传统文化,必须首先要对传统文化这一主流品质有正确的认知和把握。 China’s traditional culture is far from God’s ideas and ideas enough to open a real and firm rationalist way of thinking, and this rationalist view of the world and methodology is the root cause and essence of a consistent and absolute atheism. Although Confucius’s thought does not constitute a direct and open opposition to theististic viewpoint, the ideological tradition he expounds and develops is essentially an atheistic way of thinking. According to this tradition, there can not tolerate the existence of an external, human, personal supremacy of God. Therefore, Confucianism must, by its very nature, be separated from religious theism. Today, we must carry forward the traditional culture. We must first of all have the correct understanding and grasp of the mainstream quality of traditional culture.
