Interview Group

Before the discussion of our survey, I would like to talk about the surroundings of our interview, our interview objects are limited to Chinese. Official data statistics, "People's Daily" August 06, 2014 11th Edition article " The number of Chinese Christian believers is between 23 million to 40 million, which reported that the reporter held the 60th anniversary of China Christian Three Self-Patriotic Sports Committee from August 5th and the Christian China Seminar, according to the Chinese and foreign schools. More recognized data, currently between China's Christian believers between 23 million to 40 million, accounting for 1.7% -2.9% of China's total population, but compared to the US Princeton, NJ mentioned in 2014 about three-quarters of Americans In an interview in 2014, when they were asked to provide their religious preferences, 50% were newers or other non-Catholic Christian religions, 24% were Catholic and 2% of Mormons. So our survey is not global, but only for China, do not consider our data to generate errors.

After we summarized all the findings, we found an interesting issue. In our interview, "How much is your understanding of Christianity" and "Do you think Christianity is a good thing or a bad thing (or keep neutral)" "Are you a religious belief?" We want to focus on “The attitude of people with religious beliefs other than Christianity towards Christianity".

In China, there are several kinds of common beliefs: Taoism, Buddhism, Islam and Christianity, of course, have a large part of the atheist. In our interview, there is two people believe in Taoism, one people believe in Buddhism, one people believe in Islam, two people believe in Christianity, if the investigation data is expanded, there are six people’s family believe in Buddhism, one people’s family believe in Islam, one people’s family believe in Christianity.

There are also a few interesting religions in an interview, such as China's minority - Hui Nationality, Hui Nationality Is Desnded from the Arabic and Persian Merchants Who Came To China During The 7th Century. With a population of 643, 238, the massity of the group lives in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. However, there are some living in almost all the provinces and cities of China. Most of them are Muslim and there is typically a mosque in each community. The Imam led the religious activities and their sutra is In our interview, there is a saying if you visit them, you will be served a wide variety of distinctive food. For example, a pigeon is fed to the sick as a tonic, but only after it is approved by the Imam. They are generally forbidden to eat the meat of pigs, dogs, horses, donkeys, mules as well as the blood of animals. moreover, if people of other nationalities use a pot or dish to hold pork, then they will not use or touch the Dish. Their religious belief is a family, and they are basically no choice for religion, and the family in the Hui nationality has identified the faith of Islam. In our interview crowd, there are one people’s family who believe in Taoism. According to them, Taoist believers take Taoism as their highest belief, regard the Tao Te Ching as classic, and respect Taoism and virtue. It is believed that Tao is the origin of everything in heaven and earth, and everything in the universe, yin and yang and everything in Vientiane is transformed by Tao. Virtue means "getting", and morality is embodied in man and all things. People and all things are born by Tao and moral education, so we should respect Tao and noble virtue. 

Taoism holds that the Tao can be cultivated, and the Tao can be immortal. Taoism regards life as extremely important, which is different from Christian and Islamic practice ideas. For Taoist believers, monasticism means immortality, and advocates prolonging the length of life and improving the quality of life existence through cultivation, so as to achieve the eternity of life. Taoism advocates treating secular life with the attitude of being clean, doing nothing, striving for nothing, practicing with the spirit of "my life is in my absence", uniting with Taoism through various Taoist practices, and becoming an immortal. In Taoism, there are also Christian-like divisions, including ordinary believers and clergy. The clergy of Taoism are mainly divided into two factions. Quanzhen Taoist priest is a monk, single, vegetarian and living in Taoist temple. Have long hair, hold it in a bun on the top of your head, and wear a crown. There is also an important way for the orthodox school to pass on and become immortal, and it is also an important condition for the orthodox school Taoist priests to cultivate their truth. Only by receiving the monks can they be "named to heaven”, and there is a clergyman, and the inscriptions in the fasting can reach heaven and be protected by the gods. Therefore, only after having the qualification certificate can they be qualified to preside over the fasting ceremony. 

The examinee is called a student, and must have certain conditions. According to the information provided by the interviewee, the gods worshipped by Taoist believers include Jade Qing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun and Taiqing Moral Tianzun, which are the highest gods worshipped by Taoism. Yuanshi Tianzun has the highest status and is generally enshrined in the center of Sanqing Hall; Lingbao Tianzun is in the second place and is enshrined on the left side of Yuanshi Tianzun; Taishang Laojun is dedicated to the right of Yuanshi Tianzun. The four heavenly emperors who assisted Sanqing: the Jade Emperor, ranking first among the four emperors, was in charge of Heaven; Zhongtian Ziwei Arctic Emperor assisted the Jade Emperor in charge of the natural latitude, the sun, the moon and the stars, and the four-time climate; Gouchen went to the palace to help the jade emperor take charge of the people in heaven and earth and the sword soldiers in the world and control the stars; The afterland is only in charge of the birth of yin and yang, and the mountains and rivers of the earth. It is called God Mother with Jade Emperor respectively. The Jade Emperor is the most worshipped god among the people. The four gods are Qinglong(dragon), Suzaku, White Tiger and Xuanwu (turtle snake)

An interviewee owns a neutral opinion towards religions. Even though she herself is an atheist, she believes that the good or bad of religions is just dependent on the attitude of the believers: the wrong believe will lead to evil but the good believe will guide to goodness. When talk about Christianity, we can easily find out that Echo do have at least a shallow understanding towards Christianity: she can name some name that related to Christianity, and in the past times she do used to pay visit to the church regularly. From her perspective, Christianity is a religion with profound influence and long history, and that is the reason why she tends to believe that it is a religion with goodness and wisdom. 

However, she also pointed out that there are some people doing crimes and believe in Christianity at the same time. Also, her attitude towards the God is somehow neutral: as an atheist, she does not believe that there are any “personalized” God exists, but when she faces difficulties that hard to overcome, she would hope that there will be a “God” to offer her help or guide her. When we talked about Judas, she expressed her aversion to Judas’ betrayal immediately. One interesting fact is, she describe herself as a “centrist” in the end of our interview, and she emphasized her opinion in the beginning of the interview again: the good or bad of religion is dependent on the action of believers, and it can be both good and bad at the same time.

One of our questions mention "What is religion is", and most people say religion is belief and faith. Most of them believe that religious beliefs can bring people's comfort and life, which can lead people to a better direction. 

Interestingly, most of them are unsyth, I asked why I think that religious beliefs can lead people better, but they choose to believe that there is no god in the world, and their answer will make me unexpectedly, there is a teenager This is said: "Than God, I believe in myself, I believe I can make yourself better, people who need the existence of God, maybe more weaker." In his moral education, The concept is completely unfair, or it can prove that he is a target positive person. But the truth is that if you know about Christianity, you will know that God will not let you wait for the sky, the gods love the world, but selfish waiting for the people who have been waiting for some other arrangements. Understand this creation, then where is the problem?

In interview "How much is your understanding of Christianity, which way", almost all answers are network, textbooks, and missionaries. When they mentioned the missionaries, they were slightly desirable. "There is a person telling so," I walked in the street. Suddenly there is a middle-aged woman rushed out, telling me that God will create a miracle, tell me When I met a car accident, I called Jesus to save me, and then the car disappeared. I don't believe in the truth, and I feel a bit horror. Do people meet the danger should not think about escape? "In China, even Christ The understanding of Christian is not comprehensive, many people are because of these miracles to believe in Christian, and many people have seen these miracles, but far away from Christianity. People have a big deviation for the understanding of the Bible, meaning in Chinese and English. (Even when people who has a christainity understanding read the Chinese version of the Bible, there are many things that don't understand)

So, how should we avoid ignorance of madness in 2021, and do effective teaching? From the interviewee's answer, it can be seen that they don't resemble the religious beliefs, but they have a deviation to Christianity and the facts, and it is not known to know the truth. It can be said that it is nothing to understand. First, we can conduct popular science, answer and public understanding from the network, from the media, and pass the truth to people.

Now people get knowledge paths from books to the network and social media. You can choose to open or ignore network information and hard mission on the street. It seems to take the initiative to make people approach Jesus, personally go to Jesus, and also reduce a lot of exclusion phenomena.

Secondly, there are many small stories about Jesus. In the United States, children read this very common, many attractive animated video can also be very intuitive and clear, let the children understand the story behind Jesus, and China, almost no Christianity Children's readings. These stories are very old-fashioned in Chinese translation, and they are invisible to real meaning. We can translate the story into interesting Chinese (network language), which is convenient for people to understand and attract more readers.

For example, in our interview, there’s a question asked "What do you think is a good person or a bad person" there are six people have not heard of this story, and some people think it is Juda to kill Jesus. They said that this understanding is only in the painting of Leonardo Da Vinci, and there is no understanding of the background of the story. During the interview, we told the true story about the last dinner. Their views of Judah are also very surprised. 

From the beginning, they have a deep understanding of their own, but they have known the truth. The process is so simple. There is a person saying: "I always thought that he kill Jesus personally, I don't know why he did this, just a simple person who felt that the murder should be a bad person. Now, since Jesus clearly knows, but still Let him do this, then that Jesus should be very fair. He accepts his own destiny, and respects others' choices. And he is also blinded by the interests, and he is used to sell Jesus. He finally regretted, It may indicate that his nature is not bad. Jesus is forgiven people's sins should also forgive him, then I don't think he is a bad guy, I keep him neutral. "

However, in the end of the interview, we asked every person who interviewed. "After all the questions, do you have changed to religion?" 100% said no, still Adhere to their own point of view. Indeed, changing people's opinions are not five or six minutes that easy, this is a long-term process. 

Disseminate people's doubts and conflicts, learn from carefully. 

In such a large environment of such religious belief, religion is also necessary. How can people with other religious beliefs can accommodate the presence of Christianity? From the perspective of Christianity, it should also do this. Even if the viewpoint is different, unfair blind attacks other religions, learn and learn more about other religions, and do real inclusion.
