A:A Christian can do what is known as philosophical Taoism (or Daoism) without a conflict of interests. Philosophical Taoism teaches ethical principles and harmonious living.

If a Christian studies religious Taoism, he or she will soon have to make a decision whether to continue to follow Christianity or to follow Taoism with its many gods.

What are the beliefs of the origins of the universe in Taoism?

Taoists believe Tao is a presence that existed before the universe was formed. They believe it continues to guide the world and everything in it, and sometimes identify it as the Mother, or source of all things. Unlike the Christian belief of one God who formed the universe, though, Taoism is not monotheistic and Tao is not a god or supreme being, it is a force and the ultimate reality. For more on Taoism, I would suggest a thorough Internet search. It appears there are many conflicting views about Taoism and its affects on society.
