Buddhism is a faith which teaches the credulous to believe nonsense without evidence, if that's atheism then fine. But I call it bullshit.
1. Buddhism worships no gods. They only pay respect to Buddah not in worship neither asking for favors. Buddha isn't god nor claimed to be god.
2. Teachings of Buddhism teaches that wealth is not important as money comes and goes.
3. Buddhism to most people is not a religion but a philosophy. lead a moral life, be mindful and aware of others thoughts and actions, and to develop wisdom and understanding.
4. Buddha knew the power and importance of science and asked his followers to test the teaching rather than accepting his word.
5. The only faith in Buddhism is the initial acceptance of Buddhas teaching.
So yeah i'm going to defend this guy. At least this religion is more loving and peaceful than certain ones.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
