I learned a lot about Taoism in this last week. For example, I learned that they are more laid back and passive than Christians. I tend to disagree with most of Taoism since as a Christian, I am called to take action and stand up for God. Also, we as Christians are called to convert others rather than sit back and watch the time fly.
I do agree with some aspects though:
I believe we define ourselves [through God], not through actions or people. Also, I believe that we should not fight just to fight; peace is important.
The lack of stress and disruption in Taoism is nice, but I believe it to be a naive thought since everyday we are put into tough, stressful situations and not realizing/accepting this would just be wrong [to me].
