Hi Friends, The aim of this thread to explore Taoism in comparison and complementation to other religions, esp. Christianity. I have not yet done much reading in Taoism; I plan to start with The Way of Life According to Lao Tzu (Lao Zi), so in way I'm looking for people to explore the path with me. If you have studied Taoism to any extent, I'm particularly interested in your participation if you are willing.
So, my first question is whether you think that Taoism is compatible with Christianity, i.e., could a Christian also be a Taoist?
Is there any relationship (historical, ideological, metaphorical, cosmological) between the two?
How might the priciples or practices of Taoism conflict with those of Christianity?
Anyway, sorry this is such a meager start. I hope to have more input as I progress in my reading and research, but for now any thoughts you all have would be of interest.
