HRES 784 EH

H. Res. 784

In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

October 28, 2009.

Whereas September 28, 551 B.C., is recognized as the date on which
Confucius was born in the town of Qufu, in what is now the Shandong
Province of China;

Whereas Confucius, who is one of the greatest thinkers, teachers, and
social philosophers in history, developed a philosophy that has deeply
influenced, and continues to influence, the social and political
thought of countries around the world, including China, Korea, Japan,
Taiwan, and Vietnam;

Whereas Confucius counseled introspection, self-cultivation,
sincerity, and the observance of respect within social relationships
as a means of achieving justice and attaining morality in personal and
public life, reflecting a moral fiber of the highest degree;

Whereas the teaching of Confucius that ‘what one does not wish for
oneself, one ought not to do to anyone else; what one recognizes as
desirable for oneself, one ought to be willing to grant to others’ is
a model for ethical behavior and for the promotion of harmony among
us;

Whereas Confucius taught that an ideal government is founded upon
loyalty, respect for elders, and recognition of the importance of
family; and

Whereas Confucius taught that politicians must be models of
truthfulness and morality, which serves as a reminder to all of our
duty to serve with the utmost honor and respect: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the House of Representatives honors the 2,560th
anniversary of the birth of Confucius and recognizes his invaluable
contributions to philosophy and social and political thought.

There is no value in honoring Confucius today. Congress is wasting
valuable time instead of solving and reducing America's problems as we
have them today. Honoring Confucius will not solve any of America's
problems.
