[quote=YVONNE,331621]I am not totally discounting the 'usefulness' of fengshui because there are good commonsense features about this ancient Chinese practice but I feel fengshui should not be offered as a study course at universities - it makes a mockery of the other sciences. What about religion? Is it a science? There are some schools that offer classes about Buddhism, Christianity etc. Should they be closed too? "All that is real is rational; and all that is rational is real"---- Hegel’s famous statement. According to this statement, the existence of Fengshui is rational because it has existed for thousands of years. So is religion. By the way, Fengshui is not all about superstition. According to Fengshui principle, the houses sit north and face north are the best. Is it reasonable? Yes. Have you found that most houses in China face south? Why do they face south? China is in the Northern Hemisphere and most parts are in the north temperate zone. In winter, more sunlight can enter the houses that face south. Thus, it is warmer in the houses that face south. On the other hand, China is mostly affected by the South Asian Monsoon. The northwest wind dominates most parts of China in winter. The houses facing south can avoid the attack from the northwest wind.[/quote]
