Anywho, the central question that confucius sought to answer was the basis of an orderly society -if not- for ancestral and nature spirits. He spent plenty of time thinking about and discussing "religions" and their relationship to proper governance. Gods too. My favorite piece of his advice about them - is to stay away from them, lol.
It didn't take westerners showing up and importing the idea of religion or of secularism, and then interpreting things along those lines. The chinese have always been capable of doing that themselves.
