ok.i agree some opinons of Pandin. Kindness comes from the conscience, and from the highly conscious and awakening. i think most Chinese people will probably have the same opinion, but our charity is absolutely so backward. Because our economy is underdeveloped, and the government has so much bad thing in it. i haven't ever seen the religion to do much charity.

Let me talk about the situation in China now! System of the PRC is a socialist country, so all Communists are atheists, the communists-based charity is the same as you said. In inland China, the Buddhist is the largest faith but I lived in China for so long, never heard the name of Buddhism to do charity, but I had heard the name of Christianity a few times! Maybe in other countries, Christians do charity in the name of their belief. In China, each of charity, are to do their own conscience, and rarely do that is to their own beliefs, even some people will do charity as their duty or responsibility! For instance ,In 2008, an earthquake occurred in Wenchuan, China. Basically all of those who regard the disaster to save the lives of their own responsibility. Some even sacrificed their own to save the lives of others, not because of their faith, it's their conscience.
