Foreign science is based on ancient Greek philosophy and practice, but there is no relevant literature in China, so it is not surprising that Einstein said that China has no science. Many people actually have a wrong understanding of Einstein's words. It is not that Einstein despises China for not having science, but that the historical development and the history of science show that China did not have science until very late; feudalism From a conservative point of view, it is not surprising that the slow development of science and technology has made it difficult for science to develop in China.

1. The feudal and conservative dynasty life made it impossible for China to integrate into foreign cultures, and it was naturally difficult to develop science

Why did Einstein say that China has no science? It is because China's history has long hindered the path of scientific development. The former dynasty system indeed made China break away from the world very early. The Chinese who lived under the emperor’s life every day had no idea what science was. If it weren’t for the comings and goings of missionaries, China would still be too conservative to accept it. People who eat foreign food; when they really step out of their own door, China's culture has long lagged behind the world! It has become a particularly backward country and naturally has no science of its own.

2. China does not have its own philosophical thoughts and scientific culture. It is difficult to truly have its own science. It is not surprising that there is no science.

China really does not have its own Philosophy? In fact, it is not impossible, and it has always been denied. There are indeed philosophical allusions similar to science in Chinese history, but they are not practical and were denied by the imperial dynasty. The views on the frontier of science cannot be passed down well; perhaps as future generations, we will feel this It is a pity, but this is the product of historical development. We can only say it is a pity. Therefore, the wrong choice at that time left China without its own philosophical data and practical results.

Einstein only proposed through China’s history that it is not surprising that China has no science? It was not an act of contempt.
