Agreed. There are too many coffee house Buddhists.

Or hormonal "I'm a Buddhist Buddhists."

When I'm in Thailand this summer, I will learn about Buddhism.

Oh, the wit. Mercy please.

I'm Buddhist 😄

I believe the texts are simply reflections of the specific culture in which they were written.

Well I could just insult your beliefs, but then that was really not a very fair thing to do, for which I'm sorry 🙂

Most people are good. For the most part anyway. I saw a television show about serial killers, and the doctor in it has made some interesting discoveries about their brain structure. In fact, the majority of them experienced some form of major head trauma in their childhood.

Here we go, lets absolve the responsibility...

Our basic nature is enlightenment. In other words, we are all children of God.

Imago Dei...I can't believe I managed to use that twice in an hour outside Divinity!
