On September 29, 2016, Professors HUANG Yushun and HE Guanghu attended the forum ＂Whither China?＂held at Shandong University and addressed the topic from Confucian and Christian perspectives respectively. In HUANG's opinion, the notion of modernization represents a consensus among Chinese politicians, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens, and this common foundation should not be threatened at any cost. HUANG emphasizes that modernization was not imposed on China by the West but on the contrary, has been a trend within Chinese society since the Song dynasty. HUANG endeavors to promote a modern transformation of Confucianism by advocating a Confucianization of life, with the goal of appealing to a modernization in form of nationality. In HUANG's vision of a modernized Chinese society, Christianity will have its own place. Meanwhile, Professor HE outlined the modernization of western societies by analyzing the interactions between religion and civilization. He pointed out that the nature of modernization is an appeal to rationality. It is therefore necessary that Chinese should return to the origin of Chinese ancient spiritual pursuits, examine their inner religiosity, and reform Chinese religions to develop a more open as well as more self confident civilization. This review explores how Chinese scholars are positive about the dialogue between Christianity and Confucianism, and how that dialogue between different perspectives will itself expose the blind spots of each and help consensus-building.
