摘要
原始儒学创立的初衷并不是为建立一种超越世俗而具有神学性质的宗教信仰。即使有宗教化倾向的汉代儒学和宋明理学也和真正意义上的宗教不同。儒学虽在中国历史上起过某些宗教的作用或几度被宗教化,也曾被其它宗教文化冲击和影响过,但儒学本身并没有因此而改变其关注现实社会、注重人文理性的本质和传统。因此儒学不等于宗教。
The primary Confucianism is not originally aimed at building up a religion with secularity-transcending and theological properties. Confucianism in the Han Dynasty and Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties, which have the tendency to be a religion, are actually different from a religion in its true sense. In Chinese history, Confucianism used to play a somewhat religious role or was turned into a religion for several times, and it was also impacted by other religious cultures. Confucianism, nevertheless, did not change its own essence and tradition of concerning about the realistic society and focusing on human rationality. Confucianism is, therefore, not equal to a religion.
