Subject: "Korean Christians are Confucian Christians"
In reply to: Nick T. 's message, "huge article about Christianity in Korea" on 17:55:08 06/06/04 Sun

Here is another article written by a Korean metnioning the same problems.

Quote: "even today most of the Korean Christians are Confucian Christians"

"It is interesting to note that about half of those surveyed, including those who object to indigenization, rated Confucianism as the religion to which they feel closest; they are of the view that as an ethical teaching rather than as a religion, Confucianism is easily compatible with Christianity. Whether this view is justified or not, they hardly seem to be aware of the profound theological implications of their view. Given the fact that without exception Korean Christians are Confucian Christians to a certain extent, Korean theology has yet to work out the theological implication of this tremendous fact."
