Confucianism vs. Taoism

Based on these two different religions or ways of life, I can say there are major differences and similarities between them. To begin with, Taoism and Confucianism can be related since they both value nature and compare humans to nature, also, the fact that their deities aren't beings, they are ideas, and lastly, how they don't have a place of worship. However, there are differences I found for each one. For Confucianism, they often seek humaneness, need moral leaders in order to have moral people, and extend the idea of helping yourself and others. For Taoism, it's mainly on helping others and it's considered more of a way of life. Taoism is often described as a force flowing through all life. How this may relate is how in the movie Star Wars, they believe in the force, and their belief in it is what makes it more stronger and effective in having other people believe in it. One of the quotes used that is significant for me is "If people do not revere the Law of Nature, it will inexorably and adversely affect them. If they accept it with knowledge and reverence, it will accommodate them with balance and harmony." What I feel this means is that accepting and following this force will bring you peace and balance with nature and in life. Lastly, based on the poem of when Lao Tzu talked about Confucianism, it explains how he disagreed with Confucius's beliefs and showing how low this way of life is such as how the "Way" goes down based on the aspects Confucius believed in.
