[quote=PINETREE ,22161]I suppose the concept of religion has never really caught up in China. Yes, indeed the ONE element that is present in a religion is the belief of a supernatural being/force. The believers of the Bible (incl Jews, Christians, etc) call theirs God. The Moslems ( including the Hui minority in China & mainly people in Xinjiang ) call theirs "Allah ( which also means God & surprise surprise, Islam and Judaism are striclty speaking, identical) and the Hindus - well, they have many gods.A religion also deals more on the next life - they are believers of life after death. So Budhism is not really a religion though it teaches you how to live an earthly life so that one can attain nirvana and become a budha yourself after death.Anyway, it is a complicated matter. Shall not dwell into more details here, unless others are interested.PS - the writer is not a religious person himself![/quote]
