What are the differences between ancient Greece and ancient China in the same period?

The two major civilization systems in the world: the western civilization system and the eastern civilization system originated from Greece and China respectively. The core concepts of these two civilization systems can be expressed by the two most important concepts in their thoughts. That is logos and Tao. These two words have basically the same meaning, but there are also differences between them. The New Testament quotes logos. The Bible says that Jesus Christ is Logos. When the Bible was translated at the beginning of last century, the word was translated into "Tao" in Chinese characters and "Holy Word" in the Gauss version of Catholicism. I think it is more appropriate to translate it into holy words. Because the word "Tao" is mixed with many meanings that have nothing to do with the original meaning of the word "Tao" in ancient China, it is not as clear as "Holy Word" and has no ambiguity.

Generally speaking, logos is closer to the embodiment of Tao, and Tao is closer to the embodiment of logos. This sentence sounds mysterious, but the fundamental foundation of civilization is based on these two concepts. Whether people at that time were aware of it or not, for example, if a person lived in a house, he might not always realize that his house was made of stone and built on a larger stone in the foundation, but that was the case. This is a fundamental, qualitative and absolute principle. What people usually do when studying phenomena is to study the external manifestations of these essences.

The difference between a Christian and a scholar is that at the beginning, what he accepted and believed was the essence, and faith gave knowledge and personal answers, such as blessing and eternal life. Then, looking back at scholars' research, what else is there besides the knowledge, concepts and phenomena that flashed through their minds? This is just vanity.

So for me, what I care about is not the difference between these two civilizations, but where they come from and what the principle is. The forces that dominate those differences are essentially related to me, you and others. In that way, I can not only understand and change the current world, but also get eternal guidance. If things in the universe are reasonable (I believe so), then it must be like this: in all these phenomena and principles, there is an ultimate power and ultimate concern. Not only knowledge, but also love and promise, which only Christ can give me.

I'm sorry for the confusion. I have only a superficial understanding. I'm talking about principles, not phenomena. People who specialize in history can answer your questions about phenomena.
