Whats your opinion of Budhism?

[Pel]

I see there is a lots of opinions on monotheism but I don't hear much on Buddhism. Why is that? Do you aprove of Buddhism? Do you like it better than monotheism? What do you think about its beliefs?

As an Omnist I see some truth in it like I see some truth in most of the religions.

Thanks

The bits that say 'dont kill people' or the bits that say theres an invisible tyrant in the sky?

Buddhists are know it all pseudo-intellectual shitheads. I am also being overly generous with my appraisal too.

The parts of Buddhism that talk about ethics for lay followers is what I agree with. I will give you an example. In a book called being good by Hsing Yun I read under anger that it is evil to return anger for anger and that is always better not to get angry. But I believe in God so I can't be the Bhudist. I also disagree with their monastic rules for monks and nuns.

Also have you thought that if there beliefs on reincarnation are true that we have all had sex with our siblings, parents, children and everyone else countless times in the past since Buddhists claim that our conciousness has no begining and stuff like everyone was your mother. That means that that mother was also you lover in your past lives. This is something I don't think God would do to us so I don't believe in reincarnation, but I do believe in some sort of karma in this life.

My opinion on Buddhism is that it is spelt with two d's.

Forsaken, why aren't you happy with one d? I find one d sufficient.

Thanks

The difference between two d's and one d:

Both are still amazing, but worse back problems win in this case
