    More or less everyone is a Buddhist. When you die, you REALLY DO live again as something else. Usually a pack of worms. Every single Buddhist I've met has been a completely shallow slut. I have no idea why they would choose this religion, but it's most likely because they have no idea what it is.

    You have to be reincarnated a millions times and maybe you will one day reach perfection. The trouble is you must pay off your negative karma and no one knows how many times you have to come back or what life form you will come back as. Far too much of a risk and no guarantees that you have satisfied the quota.

    Buddhism bases its beliefs and practices on the teachings of an evil renegade monk from the eighteenth century BC called Futon Sudoku. It is widely believed that the doctrine of Buddhism spread by Sudoku actually is a plagiarized work belonging to his art history instructor Hippocrates and his sex education instructor Socrates from Devry University. Ancient statutes and texts support the depiction of Sudoku being the first philosopher to don the ceremonial tin foil hat. However, research indicates that Sudoku developed super galactic schizophrenic tendencies (otherwise known as enlightenment) and began hearing voices after several months of abusing opium, heroin, and several underage concubines. The Buddhist philosophy follows the traditionalist Three Stooges path to liberation. The stages of the Three Stooges teachings include the Buddha, where the student learns the path to morbid obesity including tons of food followed by lots of non-action. The second step is the Dharma (pronounc... Read more

    My closest direct experience with the faith was practicing the Buddhi system when swimming as a youngster.

    A peaceful religion that doesn't try to shove their teachings into my throat (unlike Christians).

    Its' the real deal. If you want to experience it in its purest form, check out a Theravadin (Theravada) temple, and bring an open mind. If you want to warm up to it read "What the Buddha Taught" or any book by Achaan Cha.

    Buddhism meets the person where he is, it seems.  You may or may not believe in God or an afterlife.  Buddhism tries to pick you up from where you are presently and widen your spirituality.  Also, there are paths a person can take through various practices like meditation or the martial arts or chanting.  You do not have to be a 'type' to be Buddhist.  There are vegetarians and meat eaters who are Buddhist.  There are some Christian teachings that say God is within.  So you can study and attend, etc, and get nowhere.  The key is finding the point within yourself that intersects with divinity and follow that road, which is the one God gave you.  It is your only path and none can follow it but you.  I see Buddhism as easing your way in finding and tracking on that path.  It seems to cut out the dogma and show you to yourself, and if you stive to  know yourself you will ultimately see your link with all that is. I have great respect for this religion because I see more clearly in it th... Read more

    I'm no expert on this faith, but I like the fact that these people are generally very peaceful and accepting unlike many so called "Christians" and "Muslims".  Plus meditation can be relaxing, so four stars in my book!

    Pretty decent religion seems to focus on how to be both a kinder being as well as how to adapt to harsh realities of earth: Downside is that it's very foreign and foreign terminology can be hard to understand to those in the western world. Also, for those who want to view the divine in more personal human ways this religion will leave them dry.

    I don't know much about Buddhism; altho it does seem that it is a 'peaceful' religion that if nothing else seems to do very well at being conscious of human welfare issues .

    The only part I don't get is that there's no afterlife. But a lot of the practices are really awesome.

    Buddhism is not even a religion, wtf? It's not comparable since Buddhists don't wish to kill everyone who are not Buddhists. The only other civilized religious people I know of are Hindus.

    For the individual seeker Buddhism is a great source of insight, and its harmonistic teachings allow adherents of this faith easy to adapt to the ways of others. I think among the only flaws of this religion are deification of its original sage, and suceptability of its followers to fall into a monostatic or even ascetic way of life. Buddhists replacement of return to the higher power, with a form of sage worship has hindered the progress of this enigmatic movement. This deference to a once living sage, I believe has caused confusion of spiritual destiny for its devout, and so hinders their ability toward lasting insight.

    I don't believe in the idea of reincarnation, nirvana, or anything like those, but the qualities followed wouldn't be bad to follow as a philosophy rather than a religion if their wasn't a set I already use.

    People are born into this world in a state of "WANT!" When we don't get what we want, then we suffer. We cry to our parents, our boss, ourselves, and its never enough. If we recognize where this nagging ache to have things our way is coming from, then we have found the road to peace. "IF you meet the Buddha on the path, kill him. He is not the Buddha you are."
