Ethics Frameworks Don’t Guarantee Moral Goodness
I really like this point, ethic frameworks could effectively help society shape a some kind of moral goodness. However, the level of obedience still highly depends on personal well being and the personal background.
Being and becoming an exemplary person (e.g., benevolent; sincere; honoring and sacrificing to ancestors; respectful to parents, elders and authorities, taking care of children and the young; generous to family and others). These traits are often performed and achieved through ceremonies and rituals (including sacrificing to ancestors, music, and tea drinking), resulting in a harmonious society.
Though the idea of confucianism seems very harmonic and it was actually a very important in elementary education in China, one interesting lack of this idea is that one section of this idea actually divides people into a superior group and a lower social class group. This turns out that sometimes confucius is actually a little be controversial in China.
