Think of it like this. Confucians are hard core conservatives. If it weren't for them, China would have ruled North and South America.
Zheng He's voyages have been halted by the Neo Confucians in the Ming Dynasty. Back in their day, Zheng He's treasure ships were huge. 9 masts, and ten times the size of Coloumbus' ship. They were fully capable of taking over North and South America with little difficulty. The Noe Confucianisms would rather look inward rather than outward and beyond.
Liberals would rather look beyond. They always come up with new ideas and are always open to new ideas.
Either way, both groups are close minded. One is close minded to new ideas, the other close their mind off to traditional ideas
Well, i wouldn't say a separate philosophy would merge from the two. If it ever does, it won't be called a philosophy. It would be called having a brain.
I agree with Rup B down there.
