In 1583 from Matteo Ricci, who first entered the Chinese mainland, after nearly two decades of efforts, in Wanli28 finally been "on the solution side into the matter, Ma sinus into Beijing with" permitted only to the capital , the dream of Western missionaries has been the acquiescence of the emperor. A time to preach the cause of "the awarding of its scholars all over the buildings."It can be said that the Catholic Church at this time has been difficult from the beginning to see a ray of dawn.But not last, with the death of Matteo Ricci, in China of missionary policy mission has changed, so that between Chinese and Western culture to further sharp contradiction, which eventually led to the occurrence of the Nanjing Wanli44 lesson plans , the missionary work in China suffered a major blow to the future, although the missionaries began to return to China, but can not recover the glories of the past.The theme of the article is divided into three parts, the first part of the main information on the causes of Nanjing lesson plans, and results after.Lesson plans on the causes of Nanjing, I believe that there are three main factors, first, the contradiction between Chinese and Western culture, including Buddhism, Catholicism and religious conflicts are the root causes of lesson plans; Second, after the death of Matteo Ricci's mission to preach in China to changes in line China's strong conservative who is the direct cause of resentment; three new churches in the completion of Nanjing is the fuse for the incident.It is because of three reasons for this, arising from the Nanjing city officials and conservative aversion Buddhists, the first criticism is launched Libushilang Shen Que, the king on a row to the three "Can Yuan Yi Shu" in the first memorial to the throne in Shenyang missionaries to knock on the three allegations, first of all pointed out that traditional Chinese culture of Confucianism is the orthodoxy, Western missionaries Chuan seriously by the Chinese orthodoxy. Second, that the country is an astronomical event calendar, missionaries calendar start of translation, will be universal in the civil calendar, which greatly harms the discipline, should be resolutely put an end to. Concluded that the teachings of the missionaries by the mass of the Chinese traditions and customs excluion should put an end to missionary work.Reported memorial to the throne after the court has not given rise to attention, the emperor Shen also knock on the second "re-Yi Yuan Shu Participation" in the memorial to the throne, the Shen Hancock highlighted various missionaries misconduct, Shen knock on to the court Road, the memorial to the throne, they ordered the missionaries in Nanjing has started to catch. Is divided into two arrests, the first siege of the town church, and then surrounded XiaoTomb outside the church. Presided over the arrest of the missionary work in Nanjing Feng Su and a number of followers in China.Shen then knock again on the third court "Shen Yuan Shu Yi c" in the memorial to the throne in Shenyang Hancock reported on the arrest, and stressed that the Catholic Church against some anti-taught in Nanjing have a letter to go along with the scholar-officials blame the Catholic Church launched.Shen beat in Beijing through its side of the cronies and others from around the activities of Chol to the Wanli emperor, together at last under the Royal Instructions, "remand orders issued Su Yuan Feng Yi Guangdong listen to the national mean," says Shen Hancock will be successful in Nanjing After the expulsion of the missionaries, but also ordered the city of Nanjing will be the demolition of the Western Church, the Church property confiscation or forfeiture or sale of officials, religious icons, such as books are being burned all over the other missionaries have also hidden after Shen Hancock died at home after being dismissed, lesson plans eventually subsided.The second part of the article through the Nanjing Missionary case analyses the controversy of Buddhism and Catholicism. In three main points of view, the first point of controversy between the two sides is the expressions. Specific forms can be broadly divided into the publication of books, several forms such as face-to-face debates. In regard to the publication of books, as a missionary man Matteo Ricci mainly had"The True Meaning of God""On Dating""Encyclopedia of Christian Doctrine""25 Introduction""Winesburg 10";YangTingJun had"Days of release prescribed dialectical"XuGuangQi had《PISHISHIZHUWANG》《BIANXUESHUGAO》In the Buddhism camp, SHIZHUHONG《YIANSHUO》SHIYUANWU《BIANTIANSHUO》SHITONGRONG《YUANDAOPIXIESHUO》SHIRUCHUN《TIANXUECHIPI》YUCHUNXI《TIANZHUSHIYISHASHENGBIAN》。Buddhist monks and missionaries also have face-to-face debates. Monk Wu-round sends his disciple ZhangGuangTian himself with the article to the Church in HangZhou and has the face-to-face debate. Matteo Ricci also has the debate with LiRuZhen and Huanghongen. The second angle is the content of arguments bout Buddhism and Catholicism. The content mainly concentrated in the religious teachings and the social functions. I mainly explore religious teachings from Conception of Karma and Heaven hell. From the aspect of its function in society, Catholicism thinks that Buddhism does not educate people and purify the community. The third point of view is the essence of the argument. I believe that there are three main aspects. First of all, in order to maintaining the religious dignity Buddhism wants to repel. The second aspect is the competing for followers between Buddhism and Catholicism. The final is the loss of a large number of the original Buddhism practical interests. Buddhism has responded to this end.The third part is the remainder of the author. The article explores the main factors of Buddhism and the impact on future generations that including the Catholic missionary and anti-teaching situation in the Qing Dynasty in Nanjing Missionary case. Buddhist is at a disadvantage in the game theory. Sp they cited religious conflict to the political table. The use of Shidafu and believing Buddhism successfully expelled missionaries. After the end of the Nanjing Missionary case, Security and anti-sectarian religious controversy is still very intense On Catholicism and Chinese culture, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism debate."He actually sad, that is also Hancock memorial to the throne of the three. Set preface tianxiang evil break, where the two mentioned Hancock: a statement: WanliSONGBOSHENzhongyu between the expulsion of sparse rain, soon after Charlie and rehabilitation to long after this razed. Next Introduction: Fortunately, the old Shen zhongyu Shu Yuan, Shen Hui in death, was raised carved hear broadcast. Martial arts production released into the Catholic Church Yusaku dispatch, also made "The remonstrance Shenzongpo fresh sparse, Xu Zheng-jun's book is still open." Followers of other Confucianism, Buddhism, and the attacks made knock assistance of God, the innumerable, so they may as anti-education movement is following the line of Stephen Hancock, Mrs. industry while teaching. The impact of knock, etc., perfectly understand the extra cover."①After the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Qing calendar is prepared by the use of Western missionaries and the Board is also presided over. Missionaries and as a result of the friendly relations between the Qing government, Missionary work has been also developed. But Missionary work encountered opposition from conservatives like with the end of Ming Dynasty. Particularly with regard to issues surrounding the astronomical calendar, Missionary activities suffer the impacts of conservative forces. Finally, anti-education movement erupts in a large-scale in 1664. In the early Qing Dynasty under the etiquette debate, launched a comprehensive ban on religion crisis. Catholicism is forced to completely withdraw from China.
