Kumarajiva was a well known Buddhist that should always be remembered and respected.

This article seems to be citing the Xuanzang translation of the Heart Sutra at the end, not Kumarajiva's. The relevant passage in K's begins 非色異空，非空異色, not 色不異空，空不異色. It's also worth noting that K's text is not called the 'Heart Sutra,' but the "Great Illumination (vidya) Spell Sutra of the Maha Prajnaparamita" 摩訶般若波羅蜜大明呪經. The two texts obviously bear a close relation to each other.
