[quote=GUESTNANCY,396747]Chinese often fall on their knees in ancient time. To kneel is nothing special for people knelt before the image of Buddha. Ministers knelt at palaces before emperors in all dynasties. And kneeling down in the Confucianism represents submission. Not that it has something derogatory. People hold belief that they should respect Nature, authority and parents in this way. And it, to some extent, has strong power. In modern china, we can see in Chinese traditional marriage, bridegroom and bride kowtow to their ancestors and parents. However, many young couples would like to get marry in churches. No matter what reasons they hold, it is the uptrend. My question is what do you think about Chinese Kowtow culture? Should it be abolished? [/quote]
