The conclusion sets out the main contributions of this study. First, it shows that a cohort of well-known, elite Buddhists engaged in intense competition with Christians in the postwar period, seeking to align themselves with the contemporary socio-political context. Second, it shows that the type of modernity matters when discussing religion in the modern world. In this case, the study showed that Buddhists identified with the broad set of values that flourished in the postwar period under the KMT, and that they competed with Christians on the basis of these. Finally, the study shows that identity itself is not simply the product of internal religious resources (beliefs, modes of practice, authorities), but also emerges through engagement or competition with external value sets (such as political ideologies or other religions).

The academic research of the Catholic priest Du Erwei generated strong responses from Buddhists. Du claimed that Buddhism was descended from earlier lunar religion—and thus, implicitly, that it embodied a “primitive” stage of religious thought. As an anthropologist and scholar affiliated with National Taiwan University, Du drew from voluminous academic sources, meaning that his theory demanded a rigorous Buddhist response. This chapter discusses Yinshun’s writings from the period, which aimed at showing how fundamental Buddhist beliefs transcended history and that Christianity itself was, as Du Erwei had claimed about Buddhism, historically-derived. Modern historiographical forms thus increasingly paralleled the appeal to values, showing their importance for identity formation and as a standard for religious “truth”.
