Eppiphany today

everyone gives buddhism such a good name. I am not so fond of buddhism. I would much rather follow a man named Jesus who taught to love one another than some pessimistic fat man. It seems like a false thing to follow. I am not so fond of Buddha's sad look on life. he thinks everything is so sour. and yes Buddhism is controlling. It has set faiths and the set faiths are controlling. It just doesn't have a tainted name like the other faiths. don't allow society to tell u what to think. know what is there, don't know what has been revealed.

agreed. religon has been used as a very effective way to supress and control.

Man, I don't like thi quandry I face. I don't like what my eyes see. Not at all. This is troublesome...

Religion is the opiate of the masses. - Karl Marx

Hes the creater of Marxism, who would know better about how to control people than him?

If the world unfolded as it should have, religion would not be existing any more. I don't understand why it wasn't abolished once this world got smart enough t orealize that God is not the cause for everything that happens. I guess there were just too many followers at this point. Whatever, I laugh at people who go and waste their time praying, I don't think it's something I'd ever do again. I never really believed in that, and smoking pot has only supported my opinions.

In Buddaism you are encouraged to view the world from your own perspective and do good based on your own wants and abilities. It doesn't have a set list of rules like other religions. Buddaism is the only religion that recognizes the existance of a higher being within oneself, and not as a single existing body/spirit in this world.

ok guys. just imagined that the govt just fucking told everybody. "guys its about time we tell you that we proved god is fake. weve known for like 20 years or so though."

-anarchy. people would go fucking crazy. attitude would be "fuck morality" just do whatever you can to get by at anyones elses cost. it just gives people something to live there life by. people have natural instinct of right and wrong, weed dont need church to decipher that.

i typed "weed" instead of "we" in that last part.

Why would I be inclined to believe the governemnt? Because they said so? Worst possible reason... That is why this country is going to hell, quick....

just an example man.
