Christian Priest to Atheist to Buddhist

RE: Christian Priest to Atheist to Buddhist
You never did answer the man's question. Who are you to say what is the proper understanding of Siddhartha's teachings?

"Very often, they ask the question, “Is homosexuality breaking the 5 precepts?” Particularly, this concerns the 3rd precept, which concerns sexual misconduct. However, the studies of Buddhist meaning of the term sexual misconduct certainly does not include homosexual activities." ~ Ajahn Brahmavamso Mahathera

Apparently he didn't clear it with the head of Tibetan Buddhism.

Is the fact that you can dredge up "gay friendly" Buddhists supposed to impress me? It doesn't change the fundamental two-facedness of the Dalai Lama.

He just sucks westerners' cock, because it's useful to him to do so.
