In this essay, I maintain that although atheism, minimally construed, consists simply of the belief that there is no God or gods, atheists must embrace a secular worldview of one kind or another. Since they cannot be without a worldview, atheists must develop an alternative to the religious, especially the theistic, worldviews which they, by implication, reject. Further, I argue that there are, at the very least, two options available to atheists and that these should not be conflated or treated as one and the same. The two options that I explore and distinguish are scientism and secular humanism. I also maintain that the things that might count as good grounds for or against secular or religious worldviews are shaped significantly by whether atheists embrace scientism or secular humanism.

This paper attempts to delineate a kind of realism, which incorporates some anti-realistic insights regarding the perspective, situated, and historical character of our forms of knowing and being in the world, and which resonates with the basic tenets of Christian theism. The first part of the paper analyzes the challenges anti-realism poses to Christian theism, particularly regarding the role, which the doctrine of creation played in securing the correspondence theory of truth as well as the fundamental experience of God as the foundation of order and meaning. Using Heidegger’s hermeneutics in the second part, it is shown that epistemic pluralism can be made compatible with realism. Given that this form of hermeneutic realism still has problems with integrating the transcendence of God, as well as his/ her presence and action in the “world,” the notion of continuous co-creation as the basis for a pluralist realism that is amenable to Christian theism is explored in the final part.

Sam Lebens has written a richly inventive and thought-provoking book that contributes greatly to philosophy of religion and to contemporary Jewish philosophy. While there is much that merits response, I will focus here on one central theme of the book: the doctrine, dubbed (Extreme) Hasidic Idealism by Lebens, that we exist only in God’s imagination — accordingly that we are nothing but divine ideas. I will also argue that the book exceeds its self-presentation as a work in the “analytic style” and illustrates the need to overcome the analytic/Continental divide.
Sam Lebens写了一本富有创造性和发人深省的书，对宗教哲学和当代犹太哲学做出了巨大贡献。虽然有很多值得回应的地方，但我将在这里集中讨论这本书的一个中心主题:被Lebens称为(极端)哈西德理想主义的教义，即我们只存在于上帝的想象中——因此，我们只不过是神圣的想法。我还认为，这本书超越了它作为“分析风格”作品的自我呈现，并说明了克服分析/大陆分裂的必要性。

The grotto art in China has a long history. Yungang grotto is a representative grotto with China characteristics that has been preserved so far in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it is an important cultural heritage of the Northern Wei Dynasty, which embodies the culture of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Yungang grotto is also the beginning of the localization of China grotto art. The unique artistic charm of Yungang Grottoes lies in the organic combination of Indian Buddhist culture and China traditional culture, which incorporates the inherent culture of Xianbei people. This paper briefly expounds and analyzes the statue model of Yungang Grottoes bred by multiculturalism; From the perspective of cultural thought, this paper explores the consciousness of statues in Yungang Grottoes. From the perspective of blending Chinese and western cultures, this paper studies the architecture and Buddhist sculptures of Yungang Grottoes from the religious level. By studying the characteristics of Yungang Grottoes' architecture and Buddhist sculptures, this paper tries to demonstrate the Xianbei cultural characteristics of Yungang Grottoes and discuss the design of Yungang Grottoes and the blending characteristics of Chinese and western cultures embodied in the design. It is hoped that this study will shed some light on understanding and exploring the grotto culture, the blending of Chinese and western cultures and the China-oriented Buddhism.

Up to now, China's painting has not completely shaken off the influence of the spirit of European philosophy or a fundamental change in the way of viewing. The spirit of the unity of subject and object in ancient China philosophy influenced the formation and development of China's paintings. Since China Art Institute introduced figurative expressionism, a new art, into the contemporary art education system of China, it has shown its unique value in professional theory and practical skills. It not only provides new opportunities for reforming contemporary art education in China but also adds a new development direction for contemporary oil painting art in China. This article attempts to reveal the existence and artistic concept of violence in contemporary Chinese oil painting through the description and analysis of painting images and artists' emotional expression, combined with interviews with artists. Based on the development of contemporary Chinese society, the rise of new literary and artistic trends, and the influence of western painting, this paper analyses the historical causes of violence in contemporary Chinese oil painting, and examines the value of contemporary Chinese oil painting in terms of aesthetics and sociology. Therefore, establishing cultural core values is still the indispensable spiritual power of contemporary artists' artistic creation.

Confucianism is an important theoretical support of the Chinese national spirit. It started with the Confucian school founded by Confucius. After the continuous enrichment and creation of Confucianism, it gradually formed an important guiding ideology covering people, people, society, people and nature, which had a far-reaching impact on politics, economy, literature, social life, and other fields. In the 1980s, the stable social environment brought by the reform and opening up provided a good external condition for developing dulcimer art in China. The increasing communication between Chinese and western cultures and ideas has brought new ideas for developing dulcimer art in China. Yangqin, in the form of "singing, dancing and telling stories,” shows the living state and ideal pursuit of literati in the Yuan Dynasty by shaping specific events and characters, thus being regarded as a "living fossil" that reflects the social outlook of the Yuan Dynasty. There is no doubt that the culture of Chinese dulcimer is based on Chinese traditional culture. It has obvious characteristics of the cultural orientation of Confucianism and Taoism and is also the result of the interaction between Chinese and Western cultural trends. This cultural orientation will involve the future development trend of Chinese dulcimer culture and will profoundly impact Chinese dulcimer culture in the 21st century.

Aesthetic education plays an important role in people's education and training. Guided by the Marxist aesthetic education view, studying the construction of aesthetic education in the new era is not only an important condition for shaping a good personality and an inevitable requirement for guiding people's better life in the new era, but also a theoretical basis for guiding the cultivation of innovative talents in the new era, and a real need for dealing with the misunderstanding of aesthetic education in the new era. As an important part of socialist cultural construction, aesthetic education can cultivate people's perception, acceptance and creativity of beauty, shape individual's lofty ideals and sentiments by purifying the soul and casting the soul, transform the objective world and beautify the subjective world according to the law of beauty, establish a beautiful world outlook, outlook on life and values, and promote people's quality promotion and all-round development. From the perspective of aesthetic education, we media's characteristics enable it to become a platform for teachers' teaching and students' learning at the same time. With the new changes shown by the relationship between the media and the audience, we media can become an effective carrier to enhance college students' aesthetic education, providing us with a good opportunity to enhance college students' aesthetic education effectively.
