interesting, considering Korea is even more "Confucian" than China Smile

I do like some of the Chinese comments re Confucius

Quote:
�Confucius is the enemy of democracy and freedom,� wrote one user of the chatsite Tianya. �He only tells people to become slaves, subject to exploitation and oppression.�

�Confucius is an ***-kisser,� another agreed. �That�s why all these government officials like him.�

It's funny, because I thought when the Communist party came in they tried to tear down a lot of the Confuciunist BS...I guess they are selective on when they want to uphold it.
