摘要

在二○世紀四○年代，當代新儒家賀麟抱著同情的態度對基督精神和基督教會的關係、基督教與政治的關係、基督教與民族主義運動的關係、基督教與中國文化的關係作了深入的研究。他認為西方近代以來眞正代表基督精神的不是教會組織，而是具有浮士德精神的新人。基督教對西方政治具有很大的影響，至今仍發揮著監督、輔導並潔化政治的功用。基督敎既有同民族主義運動相對立的方面，也有促進民族主義運動發展的的積極作用。基督教是西方文化的主流，儒家思想是中國文化的主流，二者有許多相通之處。賀麟主張會通中西兩種主流文化，促進儒家思想的現代轉化。賀麟的這些看法對於當今文化的發展仍有積極意義。

In the 1940's,He Lin, a contemporary Neo-Confucian, did extensive research into the relationship between the Christian spirit and the Christian church, the relationship between Christianity and politics, the relationship between Christianity and nationalist movements and the relationship between Christianity and the Chinese culture. He contended that the Christian spirit was better expressed by Faust's ”New Man” rather than the Christian church. Christianity has influenced western politics to a great extent; it still supervises and purifies politics to this day. Although Christianity is opposed to nationalist movements in some aspects, it still helps them forward in others. Christianity is the main current of western culture as Confucianism is the main current of Chinese culture. The two share many similarities. He Lin held that we should fuse western culture and Chinese culture, thus promoting the modern transformation of Confucianism.These ideas have positive connotations for the development of contemporary culture.
