I agree that the author seems to be quite knowledgeable in the subject he has written. He might have a history background. I’m not very familiar with Chinese history myself other than popular stories that most people have heard. He basically gave an overall view of the Chinese belief system and how it has evolved in different periods of Chinese history and their roles in those societies, mostly regarding how people of different status use them differently. He didn’t really mention the schools of thought other than Confucianism in passing. He’s clearly focused on mysticism rather than things like Buddhism, Taoism, Mohism, etc.
I wanted to talk about how old literature give a different type of perspective on that subject looking back at older history (i.e. historical historian perspective) than how modern scholars might view it now, but that comment got marked as spam for some reason.
Some of the stuff don’t really make much sense semantically. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s actually AI generated content. At first I suspected it might be a copy and paste from baidu. Most of it makes sense but there are a few phrases and words scattered throughout that just doesn’t make any sense why they are there, like 大草. Maybe it’s one of those GPT-3 stuff and someone is just having fun on here. The text sounds too scholarly, not something you’d see a normal person write, but then you see phrases like 写累了……先这样吧，我后面在这个基础上再修改, which sounds like someone wrote the English version first and passed it through Google translate and tack onto the end of the wall of text just to make it sound like a human wrote it. 非常谢谢 is just hilariously bad. There are also very conversational phrases that sound normal and seems like someone wrote that in the form of an actual human conversation. Who knows, people like to play games on here. I don’t know why they didn’t bother removing the weird parentheses or other weird punctuation you usually get from GPT-3. It’s not actually hard to simulate this type of linguistic incompetence by hand, but given how hard the author tries, I think he just doesn’t really understand Chinese very much. He didn’t remove the weird punctuation because he had no idea wtf was going on. I’m not doubting the competence of the original author that GPT-3 extracted the text from as I was mostly talking about the original author above regarding the actual content.
About the English translation, I am sorry that this is limited to my English level can not express the meaning I want to express in Chinese. And for Chinese people also to look up the meaning of these words …...… writing the article is my way of categorizing the flow of information, so it probably seems very confusing. But since I posted it here, I will change or explain the terms, thank you.
In fact, I am not very good at mysticism and I am not a scholar specializing in this area, but I can write about church culture related knowledge …… This article is just the tip of my information flow, I am more good at aerospace science or philosophical discussions, but I can’t write about it in easy to understand English for now.
I’m Chinese, but researching Chinese history related is just one of my interests when I’m bored. If you get a chance, you might see me writing about convolutional neural networks, military ships, pure mathematical science, or the different problems brought by language sorting and language families and history later. I will revise the article based on feedback, but due to my English language skills, I will choose to remove the English version or just write down the general version of this article.
For the problem of some meaningless words, I can only repeat the above explanation for this is my information flow categorization, which is one of my habits, I will remove these meaningless texts afterwards, thank you for your feedback.
