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.

No, it is not. Adherents number about 50 million, which is not many as religions go. There are actually a lot more people influenced by Taoism, and even who believe in it. But it is compatible with other belief systems to the extent that many people who believe have other religions. There are many Buddhists who are also Taoists, but call themselves Buddhists and not Taoists when asked. The same is true for Shintoists. There are even many Christians who are also Taoists.
