Confucianism is an ethical and philosophical system that is normally considered one of the world religions. It originated in China but has spread to Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. Most people who adhere to the teachings of Confucius follow Chinese traditional religion, which is a blending of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, and traditional local practices and beliefs.

Confucianism is more of a belief system about social order than it is one about God, the existence of god. There is piety towards god but god itself is not set in stone.

Answer from: 2021arabellacorsino

Confucianism, as its founder taught, is not a religion in the traditional sense. It is an ethical code. Chinese culture was steeped in the religion of animism, a belief that gods and spirits dwell in natural formations. Along with an animistic world view, there was a belief in ancestor worship. The spirits of the dead needed to be honored and cared for by the living family members.However, in his teachings, Confucius avoided spiritual issues. He can be categorized as an agnostic who believed in spirits and the supernatural but was not interested in them. He was humanistic and rationalistic in his outlook. "His position on matters of faith was this: whatever seemed contrary to common sense in popular tradition and whatever did not serve any discover able social purpose, he regarded coldly." The answer to the cultural and social problems was found in humanity itself, not in anything supernatural. Confucius beliefs were edited by his later disciples:)
