Confucianism is more political. Confucianism focuses on relationships, father to son, ruler to subject, younger brother to older brother. Confucius believed that the rulers should be concerned for the welfare of the people. Daoism is the belief that one should live in harmony and peace and be one with nature. If a Daoist was in an argument, the Daoist is expected to yield to the arguer. For example: If there was a corrupt ruler that stole money from the people for a luxurious palace, a Confucian would tell the ruler to be less selfish, while a Daoist wold tell the ruler to run away to the woods and mediate on the problem

Daoism recommends living with wisdom, compassion, and tolerance. It says that wise people accept what is, and act so subtely and in harmony with things that it appears they've done nothing at all. Violence, even well-intentioned, begets violence and should be avoided except in extremity, and then only should be undertaken with compassion and regret. Judgment is not recommended, but inner peace and happiness are highly recommended. Balance and harmony are keys to this.

In dwelling, live close to the ground.
In thinking, keep to the simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don't try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy.
In family life, be completely present.

When you are content to be simply yourself
and don't compare or compete,
everybody will respect you.
.....


Fame or integrity: which is more important?
Money or happiness: which is more valuable?
Success of failure: which is more destructive?

If you look to others for fulfillment,
you will never truly be fulfilled.
If your happiness depends on money,
you will never be happy with yourself.

Be content with what you have;
rejoice in the way things are.
When you realize there is nothing lacking,
the whole world belongs to you.

Sure, why not...I'll take Taoism (pronounced Dowism) 1. Lao Tzu (who may not have actually existed) is said to have written the Tao Te Ching, the "Book of the Way", which is arguably the most notable of Taoist writings (except perhaps the "I Ching"). He is said to have written it as a response to the guard at the gate when he was about to leave China. The guard begged him to pass on his knowledge before he left. 2. The Tao means "The Way of Heaven", or simply "The Way". It is the belief that there is a natural order to things, and that to find peace, one should flow with the way, rather than try to resist it. It's about surrendering to the way of heaven, dropping that which causes resistance. "With the Tao, every day something is dropped", reads the Tao Te Ching. 3. God doesn't fit neatly in this religion. I'd say that "Heaven's Way" and "God" are nearly synonymous. Taoists do not pray to the Tao, however. It is more impersonal than the Christian God. 4. That which opposes the Way should not be done. Murder, for example, is not heaven's way. 5. "Ritual is the husk of faith," says the Tao Te Ching. Ritual isn't important in itself--it's only important if it has meaning to the person doing the ritual. I can't think of any Taoist rituals, but some Taoists also practice ancestor worship and such. That's incidental to Taoism though.

Too much to list for Confucianism. Ethics and morality are not a goal in Taoism, virtue is.

Filial piety was highly cherished by Confucianism.
