Harmonious Society Of Chinese Religious And Ethical Analysis

In the fourth Plenary Session of the CPC 16th Central Committee, the party promotes the philosophy of the building of a harmonious socialist society. To realize the goal, we should coordinate the profit from different aspects, and solidify everyone whom we can solidify. The proportion of worshippers is increasing. It is very important for building the socialist modernization to solidify these people. As a most important part of religious doctrine, religious ethic, irreplaceably, regulates the behavior of worshippers. We should properly treat the religious ethic in china, and positively guide the religious ethic to adapt to socialist society.Religious ethic, a kind of moral system, forming in the long developing process, takes believes as the core to adjust the relation between worshippers and"God", between worshippers and common people,between worshippers and nature. It contents three aspects connect mutually: the relation of people with God, the relation of people with people, and the relation of people with nature. The relation of people with God is the basis of religious ethic; the relation of people with people and people with nature are the manifestations of religious ethic in daily life. Comparing with the common ethic, religious ethic has characteristic with sacred. Religious ethic requests the worshippers how they have to do, while common ethic requests how they should do. Religious ethic advocates the spirit of despising for fame and wealth, kind and supporting the poverty which regulate their behavior and is good for the social solidity. Therefore religious ethic pays more attention to Tao of Gods than to Tao of human, which can not favor the normal development of human society. As the duality of religious ethic, we should learn it dialectically, and guide the religious ethic positively. In modern time, the reality, contents and characteristics of religious ethic decide that the building of a harmonious socialist society needs the participation of religious ethic. Some thoughts of religious ethic are very useful for the building of a harmonious socialist society. In China, nowadays, it is not only necessary but also practicable to guild the religious ethic to adapt to socialist society.
