Confusion

Illustration★★★★

A Chinese exchange student registering at an American university was puzzled by the question on the entrance form: “What is your religion?” His answer, written in the little English he had learned was, “Confusion.”

There are thousands who are not followers of Confucius, who could truthfully write that their religion is “Confusion.” Many people do not really know what they believe.

The point

A Chinese student's confusion at the religion question on an American university form accidentally names his actual condition—many people live in spiritual confusion, not following any real faith.
