Buddhism....

Just thought I'd chuck in something different from the usual Christian Vs Atheist posts that seem to go on so much here.

Hmm. Head figure Buddha, though I don't believe he's a diety. Stress on enlightenment. Reincarnation. Once enlightment is achieved, Nirvana, either paradise or complete nothingness, is reached.

Buddha, Not diety = Correct
Enlightenment = Correct
Recincaration = Wrong, Rebirth = Correct
Nirvana, Paradise, nothingness = Somewhere in the middle.

I want people to start assuming the tiny minority of them that set themselves on fire is representative of the group as a whole.

Now *that* would be funny.

The origin of suffering is attachment.

The origin of sticky notes is the desire to let your coworkers know that some guy called wanting to know if they got the memo about the new TPS reporting format.
