I want also to
point out that the positive attitudes of the founding fathers and other eminent colonists never darkened the
existence of the negative opinions on China in North America. The negative opinions existed in the same time of the
positive opinions represented by the founding fathers with
great wisdom. However, in the formative period of American culture, the influence of negative attitudes never
became a significant factor. Nevertheless, the remarkable story of the effort to draw
nourishments from Chinese culture has served as an excellent case
study of the creation of a new civilization by adopting selected positive elements from other cultures and
assimilating the elements into the main culture. The colonists’ efforts have provided us with an
ideal way of dealing with other civilizations.
