Daoism Today
Daoist priests are in the news sometimes, because of conflicts with Buddhist priests. Generally, there isn’t anything major. You might hear about Daoist priests being criticized for charging for services for things like exorcisms. People go to these priests in hopes for help from the Gods and they believe it is wrong for priests to charge fees especially when the exorcisms don't work.

Daoism can compare to other religions because when a human is having a problem for example an illness or problem with family they turn to a god just like in Christianity when a follower will pray to God or talk to a priest.
