What was the social status of divination in Shang Dynasty?

Shang dynasty advocated destiny, and although education also contained moral factors, it did not decompose ethical and moral education in a pure sense. This kind of "virtue" only lies in strengthening the concept and behavior of obeying the destiny and the will of ancestors.

The educational activities in Shang Dynasty are full of mysterious religious colors, accounting for almost everything. Therefore, numerology, which is closely related to religion, has become an important part of Yin education. Mathematics education in Shang Dynasty actually depended on religious divination activities.
