Why I am not a Christian
There are a couple of books with this title in aLibris, both in defence of modern or not-so-modern kinds of atheism. However, there is another, by a Chinese who had been brought up a Christian and decided on growing up that he had been deprived of his own culture (he knew about Joshua at Jericho, but not about some mythical lady’s tears washing part of the Great Wall away, for instance), so he took up some kind of Chinese religion instead of Christianity. Do you know this author’s name? I have forgotten it. I read an article by him in some English-language magazine in the 1950s or 1960s, explaining why he had now gone back to Christianity. I have forgotten his reason for that, too, so if you can point me at the magazine article you will make me happy.
