Should the word "confucian" in "confucian thought" be capitalized? It looks as though it should, but I'm unsure about it. Gryphon044 02:57, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I generally figure Confucian ought be capitalized. It is a neologism anyway, but I figure that if Christ is capitalized and Christian is capitalized, it makes sense to follow the same pattern.

I was also wondering about how to address the notion of "rubiao, fali" that came up in the "society" section -- I would argue based on the Mencian notion of a Right to Revolution that homosexuals would be allowed to practice their affection regardless of what the state said about it as lng as it was in accord with their natures. Naturally, this does not apply to the parents.
