Confucius

The founder of Confucianism, [|Confucius], also known as K'ung Fu Tzu, was born in the ancient city of Lu, which is now Shantung. From an early age, he showed a great love of learning and later spent most of his life teaching ethics and morals to a small group of students. His teaching were based off Buddhist and Taoist ideas. He believed that there should be predicaments between humans and that everyone should be treated equal. [|" In education there should be no class distinction."] He had no doubt that each person was intelligent and thought that they should use it to their best potential. He didn't understand how in schools, there are different classes for different people. He believed that everybody should be on the same level of education and should get the same opportunites.
