Abstract
In the fever of traditional Chinese cultural study and religious studies,university students' trend of interest in religions deserves to be surveyed due to the great influence of the student movements in the history of modern and contemporary China. Based on the data collected through PPS from 13 universities in Beijing,and focused on the problem of meaning, a perspective derived from sociology of religion,this article demonstrates that most of the university students in Beijing keep thinking of the meaning of life frequently,but more than half of them do not find satisfying answers,a fact which signify the existence of scarcity of meaning among them. In searching for meaning,fewer than20% of them become believers of religions. The sequence of religions that interest them is as following: Buddhism,Christianity,Taoism, Confucianism and Islamism,and the sequence of meaning system to which they resort when they are in crisis of meaning is as following: scientific view of the world, non-Marxist philosophy of life,religion and Marxist philosophy. This fact means that their supportive system of meaning is characterized by secularization and pluralism. But the fact that those who turn to Marxism are fewer than those who turn to religion is of symbolic meaning,namely,the orthodoxy ideology is losing its hegemony of discourse.
