I can stop if you want, so you can get back to Buddhism being bad if you like.
How it looked from my pov:
I saw your wife Betty yesterday, and she is Ugly!
You can call my wife ugly if you want, but you should know her name is Linda, and she's been dead for 10 years.
Clearly you are rattled by my insult as you have chosen to respond!
Ugggggggg! You didn't insult me, your logic does. Learn the difference.
It isn't just Buddhism, I criticize ALL religions, and if you spent any time reading my posts here, I go after other atheists as well.
The human invented construct humans call "religion" is based on our species gap filling. That is all religions in the world worldwide in all of human history. ALL religions while they all set up social order, they are not pure, there is no such thing as a pure religion, even within the same labels their are competing sects and different interpretations and they hide behind moral claims and those claims set themselves up to divide, even within the same religions.
Buddhists are one of 10s of thousands of religions worldwide among 100s of thousands of sub sects of all the worlds major religions. Religions make moral claims and as such to give any religion a pass and never question it is stupid for the links posted in the original post. BUT THE SAME questioning applies to ALL religions.
Buddhists are not bad, Christians are not bad, Muslims are not bad, Hindus are not bad.......
The concept of grouping on old claims and gap answers does not make the followers bad, it makes their logic bad, but bad logic can lead to really bad things if there is no ability to question the idea. Humans have rights, but ideas as claims do not deserve blind value.
Humans worldwide for the most part want peace but that does not change that the idea of religion itself is not pure and for all the good it claims to do, everyone ignores it's baggage and divisive nature.
