- Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – A Buddhist Nun’s Story As told by Dr.T.L.Osborn A 74 year-old Thai Buddhist Nun relates how The Lord Jesus Christ showed her the only way to true enlightenment, peace and happiness… "Now, in Jesus, I have finally discovered what I sought all of my life." Big Woo. Why don’t you tell us about the MILLIONS of Bhuddists that have sent your missionaries packing? No. That would be too honsest for you, wouldn’t it? There are as many Bhuddists in the world as there are Christians, more- or-less. Speaking as Catholic Christian who has studied Buddhism, the philosophies of the two faiths are VERY similar up to a point, a point at which they take two radically different directions. I’ve found meditation to be very useful, and I appreciate the practice of mindfulness very much, they’re something all Christians would benefit from. I asked myself how Buddhists would hold virtually the same moral values as Christians without a belief in God. The answer is a universal truth… a natural law, which written on our souls, waiting to be read. So, peace, everybody. H.
Well said, Hugh. I don’t think it is that the Bhuddists don’t recognize the existence of God, they just don’t see It as an over-sized violently sadistic White authoritarian with such a poor self-image that It needs to be worshipped by Its own creations. As for ‘peace’? Jesus was a serious trouble-maker "I come with a sword to cleave father from son…" who drove the money-changers from the Temple with a *whip*. But He never seriously harmed anyone, which is an important difference between Him and people of violence. He demonstrated that peace could be very aggressive indeed. AC

There are as many Bhuddists in the world as there are Christians, more- or-less. Which OUGHT to tell you something. It is also a religion that pre-dates Christianity by a considerable margin, and many of its teachings closely resemble those of Jesus. Though not YOUR teachings. <snip AC
