试比较基督教的独一神崇拜和中国世俗民众的多神崇拜

A Comparative Study on Monotheist Worship in Christianity and Polytheistic Worship in Chinese Populace at Large

神灵崇拜是世界各民族宗教信仰活动中的普遍现象,然而西方基督教神灵崇拜和中国宗教神灵崇拜之间却迥然有别。本文从神灵体系、神灵观念、崇拜态度、崇拜目的四个方面对中西方的神灵崇拜现象加以比较,试图找出它们之间的差异,从而揭示中西方宗教文化内在的根本隔阂所在。

Worshiping gods and ghosts are universal phenomena which can be found in religious activities all over the world. This paper mainly compares two kinds of them： Western Christianity and Chinese fork religions. By comparing their ideas of Cod/gods, intentions and purposes in worshiping, it shows the differences between Christian faith and its worshiping, and Chinese forklore religious forms. Such differences may show the strangeness between two cultures, and then bring great obstacles to the exchange and dialogue between the two.
