	Religion in Imperial China
		Moism (Of course, not that of Chairman Mao) that lasted for about 250 years, until the second century BCE will be discussed separately.
		Moism was a moral code of behavior, established in China by Mozi Tzu (5th century381-479 BCE) that always had a spiritual leader, a community of loyal believers, holy writings, and an explicit code of law.
		With the exception of Moism, there was separation of religion and State in China, aside from short limited episodes, the most prominent ones being the rise to power of two messianic Daoist movements after the fall of the unified Han dynasty, in the year 184.

	Mohism
		In contrast to the Confucianists, who taught that devotion was particularly due to one's family, Moism prescribed equal love for all people.
		The school of Moism was founded by Mo Ti, who was born shortly after the death of Confucius.
		Mo Ti lived during the period of the warring states, which was characterised by chaos, confusion and conflict between the various feudal states.

	::::: PEACEMAKING.CO.KR ENGLISH :::::
		Followers of Moism are strict self-rulers, and are opposed to the ideas of Confuciusism.
		Born a few years after Confucius' death, Mo-tzu was raised in a period when the feudal hierarchy instituted at the beginning of the Chou dynasty (12th or 11th century BC to 255 BC) was swiftly disintegrating and China was divided into small, constantly warring, feudal states.
		Moism challenged Confucianism for prominence in China for two hundred years until it was somehow demolished during the violent Ch'in empire.

		Moism is insistent that trees are fully grown and are achieving their glorious potential at 6ft, and root bound in a constraining pot.
		Further, Moism does not simply pretend that trees over 6ft don't exist, and that there is no world outside the nursery.
		It states that the ideal of Moism is cedars (Godhood), but promotes the idea that cedars grow in pots, in nurseries (stunted artificial environment).

	Ethics of Daoism and Mo-zi by Sanderson Beck
		Yet in the Period of Warring States Moism had to face the criticism of realists like Guan-zi, who warned that if agitation for disarmament triumphed, strategic points would no longer be guarded; and if the doctrine of universal love prevailed, soldiers would no longer fight.
		Moism was also criticized for its frugality in regard to funerals and music by Mencius, who also complained that love without difference of degree was unrealistic when the manifestation of love must begin with our parents.
		However, Moism soon passed out of fashion and was neglected by Chinese culture, though fortunately his writings were passed on by scholars, and his philosophy could be studied.

		Moism holds the view that Heaven loves all things equally and by that makes unity with them.
		Moism sees Heaven on a more religious way apart from Confucianism, in which Heaven rather represents cosmic principle (idea that emerges from Book of Chabge), and Taoism which, also, sees Tao as cosmic principle.
		Thirdly, what remains is to talk about the difference between Taoism and Moism on one hand and Confucianism on the other.

		In general, the teachings of Mo Zi left an indelible impression on the Chinese mind.

		Moism, a largely pacifist ideology, is all but forgotten now.
		In addition, it was the most religious of the four schools - Legalism and Confucianism being secular, perhaps even atheistic, and Moism being largely indifferent to religion.

	Brecht's Use of Moism, Confucianism & Taoism in his Me-Ti / by Gaby Divay, e-Ed. ©2007
		Confucianism and Moism he seems to have studied in the later twenties without such external prompting.
		Most important are doubtlessly certain formal characteristics such as the frequent stereotyped introduction to most of the short texts "Me—ti sagte..." and the parabolic treatment of many didactic examples.
		It then attempts to reveal the typical Brechtian blending of these elements with three major concerns, namely the need for active thought and action ("eingreifendes Denken"), the "great method" appropriate for this attitude, or dialectics, and finally the examples for "great disorder" and "great order".

	The View from the Foyer - How to (un)Convert a TBM - @ www.aimoo.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		It is because their belief in moism reduces the negative emotions caused by their dissonance or rather their ill conceived notions about the world at large.
		My theory is that we can (un)convert our TBM loved ones not by (subtly) beating them over their heads with conflicting doctrines, problems with BoM and so forth, but rather by projecting a positive attitude (consonant cognition) about life outside of mormonism and demonstrating that individuals can be happier without it.
		My family and I were relocated to Europe a few years back and I saw and worked with so many happy people, they had a beer on the weekends and yet were successful fathers and mothers.

		Prof Ngugi says this in his message of gratitude to Kenyans for bringing the momentous change that has ended "Moi's reign of terror and set me and many others free from exile".
		He said there is danger of people concentrating on Moi as a person and to take it that all is well now that Moi is gone.
		With Moism it is easier to destroy rather than create; easier to bring down rather than build; easier to divide rather than unite.

	Mo-tzu and History
		By the third century B.C. Moism had risen to stand side by side Confucianism as the important philosophical schools.
		They did not want to hear sermons about "plain living." During the first and second centuries, it seems the few remaining ideals of Moism such as "the welfare of the people, pacifism, and benevolent authoritarianism" were absorbed into the Confucian school.
		Another possible reason for the decline of Moism was the straightforward and rather bland presentation of the writings of Mo-tzu.

		This means that we, the public, must start holding our leaders accountable for breaking the law in trying to incite us to violence; hold them accountable for the misuse of state resources; and reject attempts to excite ethnic hatred through hate speech, for a start.
		A third key lesson is that Kenyans, yet again after December 2002, rejected firmly the culture of Moism that has pervaded the political class in the country.
		This is the culture of patronage, the culture that views state resources as personal, the culture of divide and rule.

		In theory is someone has identified a point of crisis or tension, and then sets about to explicitly suppress it, they may deal with the resultant anxiety by projecting it onto other people and other situations.
		As an example, someone who has stuffed down their own disquiet, may become harsh, impatient and insensitive in their judgements of apostates, "waverers" and the "lukewarm" and become only too willing to "spew them forth".

	Mo Tzu
		He was a thoroughgoing eccentric, as famous for his dress and manners as his thought.
		His direct legacy, Moism, died out fairly quickly; in spite of this, his thought is enormously influential for all Chinese thought to follow.
		He despised Confucians with a passion, regarding them as uptight, egotistical, pretentious, upper class, and characterized by a mindless devotion to empty rituals.

	Chinese Philosopher: Mozi essays
		Moism differs from Confucianism in that Moism believes in rationalistic standards.
		Moism challenged Confucianism for prominence in China for some time until the violent Qin Empire changed that.
		Interesting that today Moism would have a fairly large following considering the parallels it shares with Christianity.

	cantonrep.com - Exiled Author Sees a New Door Open in Kenya
		In a recent interview at his home, Ngugi, who heads the University of California-Irvine's International Center for Writing and Translation, warned about the dangers of ``Moism without Moi,'' about the need to rebuild Kenya's institutions and why Kenya's new leaders should seize on this mood of optimism.
		In his numerous novels and nonfiction books, Ngugi has documented how many countries on the African continent moved from colonialism to neo-colonialism, a stage in which independence leaders installed ruling fl elites that were as villainous as their former white oppressors.
		Moi is gone, Ngugi said, but Kenya needs to be wary of Moism, a condition in which the state is seen as a vehicle for looting the nation, in which ethnic hatred is promoted and national initiatives are crushed.

		In retrospect, what we had in the December 2002 election was a contest between Kanu with Moi on the one hand and Kanu without Moi on the other.
		Moi is out but Moism in its fullest splendor, rigor and color is the ruling ideology.
		In this milieu, most have been left to simply criticize, complain, whine and grumble.

		Finally, it is critical that we use these next two years to finally bury Moism and its predatory culture that still pervades us.
		In 2002, we voted resoundingly for the end of Moism, but in the last 3 years we have been treated to Moism without Moi.
		The country now has a golden opportunity to end Moism once and for all, and we must seize it now, for this is the season for accountability and ending impunity.
