Abstract: Fanwen's Tibet Trilogy describes the collisions and integration of different ethnic and cultural groups from the aspect of religion. It highly praises religion's redemption for love and life and insight to social problems, providing profound description of and exploration to the function of religion. However, the inadequate purification of religion's negative factors brings out some reflections: (i) the power of evil purified in the religion is not fully considered and discussed, which makes the power of the goodness appear to be separated from the cultural foundation and thus look void; (ii) the undue praise of the divinity leads to the abstraction and signifying of the character images and further the repression and distortion of human nature; (iii) the religious redemption is over-emphasized, leading to its absolutization and nothingness, which weakens the profundity of the introspection and the criticism in describing the history, and makes it mysterious and fantasy in forecasting the rebirth and future.

Key words: religion, good and evil, divine nature and human nature, ultimate concern
