Fujian Theological Seminary invited scholars to the Fuwan Forum to hold a series of academic events for the new semester over three days.
According to CCC&TSPM, three academic lectures were held from October 22 to 24.
Ruan Juexi who holds a Ph.D. from Cambridge University, UK, gave a lecture titled "Between Two Chinese Characters - Philosophy and Philosophy Itself". Dr. Ruan started from the questions in philosophy, such as the origin of life, the meaning of existence, the essence and phenomenon, the root of thoughts, etc. He pointed out that philosophy was to love wisdom, and thinking did not necessarily mean philosophy. He also shared how to learn philosophy by using his own learning experience.
Professor Zhan Shichuang, a doctoral supervisor of Sichuan University and the editor-in-chief of “Religious Studies”, an academic quarterly journal, gave a traditional lecture entitled "The Cultural Essence of Ruling in Body and Nation – A Guide to Reading Tao Te Ching". Professor Zhan expounded this profound Chinese classic through the appearance and inheritance, cultural value, and great management wisdom of Tao Te Ching. He summed up the cultural values in Tao Te Ching as "five words"-Tao, virtue, kindness, quietness, and peace. He pointed out that the book's core spirit was "great love", as Laozi regarded "Tao" as "the mother of the world", advocating loving everything, the country, the people, and his own body.
Zhuo Xinping, honorary president of the Chinese Religious Society and doctoral supervisor of the Institute of World Religions of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, shared his ideas under the title of "Exploration of Post-Modernism" from the understanding, transformation and modern deconstruction of post-modernism to philosophical statements and the rise of theology. He also combed the types, evolution, and main schools of postmodern theology, and expounded the postmodern theology.
Professor Huang Yongfeng, Ph.D., a doctoral supervisor in the Department of Philosophy at Xiamen University, along with other experts and scholars responded to the lecture contents. They said that this series of lectures was an academic feast of cultural exchange and collisions of ideas.
In addition, Professor Zhuo, Professor Zhan and other experts and scholars, as well as the relevant persons in charge of Xiamen University, held the opening report meeting of the 2021 Annual Religious Studies Project of National Social Sciences in the seminary.

福建神学院邀请学界名家走进福湾讲坛举行为期三天的新学期系列学术活动。
据中国基督教网报道，10月22日至24日，三场学术讲座分别举行。
英国剑桥大学哲学博士阮觉羲给师生带来《的与底之间——哲学与哲学本身》讲座。阮博士从哲学所问的问题，诸如生命的起源、存在的意义、本质与现象、思想之根本等说开来，指出哲学就是爱智慧，有思考不等于是哲学，使大家对哲学有了进一步的认识，并以自己的学习心得与经历同大家分享怎样学哲学。
四川大学博士生导师、《宗教学研究》主编詹石窗教授为大家开设题为《身国共治的文化精髓<道德经>导读》的传统讲座，詹教授透过《道德经》的问世与传承、文化价值、大管理智慧等方面阐述了这一博大精深的中国经典。詹教授将《道德经》中的文化价值观归纳为“五个字”——道、德、善、静、安。他指出《道德经》最为核心的精神是“大爱”，因为老子把“道”看作“天下母”，爱万物、爱国家、爱人民，也爱自己的身体。
中国宗教学会名誉会长、中国社科院世界宗教研究所博士生导师卓新平研究员以《“后现代”思潮探究》为题，从“后现代主义”的理解、转型及现代的解构、哲学陈述和神学的兴起等方面展开分享。他还从后现代神学的类型、演变、主要流派展开梳理，阐述了“后现代主义”的神学。
厦门大学哲学系博士生导师黄永锋教授等专家学者对讲座内容进行讲解、回应，他们表示这次的系列讲座是一场文化交流、思想碰撞的学术盛宴。
此外，卓教授、詹教授等专家学者和厦门大学相关负责人在福建神学院举行国家社科2021年度宗教学立项开题报告会。
