审视无神论研究与宣传教育的中国路径

To Build a Chinese Approach to Studies,Propoganda and Education of Atheism

无神论是从哲学上否定神的客观实在性,而不以否定宗教的客观功能为使命。以为无神论宣传教育就是充当反宗教政治工具的看法是对无神论作用、定位的夸大和意义理解的窄化。如果能在这样一种认识的延长线上去设置无神论在社会主义核心价值体系中的坐标,我们将重新审视如何建构一条无神论研究与宣传教育的中国路径,同时为在实践中坚持和发展马克思主义宗教观开辟新的契机。

The mission of atheism is to philosophically deny the objective reality of God,not to deny the objective functions and meanings of religion.Atheism should not be forced to enter areas where it does not belong.For this reason,no matter where the idea of equating atheist propoganda and education with anti-religion political tools originated,it is an exaggeration of the effects and role of atheism and narrows down its interpretation.If we can locate atheism in the core value system of socialism with Chinese characteristics with this understanding,we can expect to build a Chinese approach that incorporates atheist studies with atheist propoganda and education,and exlpore new oppertunities of upholding and developing Marxist views on religion in practice.
