I have learned so much about the chinese philosophy through this class. I wasn't aware of the four philosophies until taking this seminar. I see some value in all, which makes since, because like anything, a rule, law, or philosophy is developed out of a need. I think how people tend to address a need is what differs. I believe is some rituals, and ceremonies, because I think that it is important to have a guide. How strick and to what degree we follow these rituals is where there tends to be a breakdown. Because we all have different personalities, and some people need more rules than others, is where the problems start. Some people can govern themselves, while others have no clue as to boundaries, or even a sense of right and wrong. I agree with some of the thoughts of Confusianism, but within that philosophy, I would have some concern.
