is it possible to be christian but still have confucianism as a philosophy or a moral

i do believe in Jesus as the messiah, but i also love philosophy and that's basically what Confucianism is
but before you start condemning me for worshiping other gods you have to remember that there is no gods or god in Confucianism.

any advice or ideas etc

Of course. I practice Zen meditation and it in no way interferes with my Christianity.

I think that's fine. I'm a Christian, proud of it, but I've gone to Hindu temples to worship. Experience new things! I think making a religion work for you/be more comfortable for you is a great idea. Follow your heart.

Yes, you can easily respect both. Remember , sometimes when you have lunch , you have onion rings or mushrooms instead of always fries. Listen to your Dr. Lao.

why dint you listen to the bible for moral advice,your not respecting god if you choosing Confucianism

2 Timothy 3:16-All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

dint chose another path other than the bible, if you dint get your morals from the bible how can you say you are a true follower of god
