孙中山的思想体系中,既批判继承了中国传统文化,又有选择地吸收了西方近代文明。就其与西学的关系而言,除民权学说、进化论和西方近代自然科学等对孙中山有重要影响外,西方的基督教也与他有过相当的干系。本文拟对孙中山与基督教的关系作一考察,希冀对孙中山思想体系的评析有所裨益。一、1866—1893年基督教与孙中山的数次转移孙中山的童年,生活在传统文化氛围中。但粤南的香山早已与西方有所接触。据载,1877年孙中山曾从美国传教士初习英文。1878年9月,孙中山入檀岛正埠火奴鲁鲁英国圣公会办的意奥兰尼学校就读。该校校长韦礼士牧师企望孙中山等中国寄宿生成为基督徒。在浓重的宗教气氛熏陶下,该校不少中国学生皈依基督教。孙中山虽然没有领洗,但通过学习《圣经》、参加宗教活动,“渐渐对基督教发生了兴趣,他在基督教教义中,找到了更多的道理,而这些正是他早年信奉村神所不能满足的”。
