    Blasphemy - even as we speak my followers are seeking you out.

    They follow the techniques of Vlad the impaler when dealing with scum like yourself. My contribution is a generous coating of hot Chilli sauce on the stake just before it is rammed up your anus. Touchingly, this is now known as the Jabber sauce.

    The Jabber Commandments are written down on here for all to see, my child. One day my followers will write it all down in the Big Jabber Book of Everything.

    You know how it works. A guy stops a little girl from stepping out in front of a car. All of a sudden, it is a miracle she wasn't killed and he gets treated like superman.
    Shhh, don't tip the market....

    No. Something would be if German Advertising laws were applied to any attempts to convert to religion: you will have to prove that every single word is true, otherwise its not allowed. Of course this means there would be no religions, which would certainly make this world a much better place.

    IMO religious recruting should be regulated industry - there are far more legal checks and balances on making sure people don't get totally screwed up (unless they are asking for it) when taking a morgage, but a decision of life to join a religion is open to frauds of all sorts that can promise earth.

    And I only refered you to the spirt of Zen Buddhims as it is a philosophy, its not a religion!

    The last thing we need now is more religous converts,you are quite right that we need to seriously question these religous beliefs which are used to justify mass murder and warfare.

    Anyway, you hit the nail on the head,just be nice to people and everything will be fine.

    Easy eh ?

    Ah but from over the hill comes Chico and the Theologians with a contradictory scripture urging us on to more Wars and the rest of the circus ..

    Yes but then again Buddhism is in essence a Philosophy rather than a religion.

    Atw if you find Buddhism interesting,perhaps you would find Zen Buddhism fascinating.

    A worthwhile book in this context is the Spirit of Zen by Alan Watts isbn 0 7195 5139 0
