Very different religions, no need to debate on that here la.

Hi Buddhist.

why so judgmental ?

its not even a debate, its a discussion, he asked i answered, as simple as that

Don't talk about nibbana first (far thing), but close thing like perfecting Morality and Generosity also hard to do. Not something you will see now.

Ven Mahamoganalla produced an arahant smile when he saw a ghost suffering. Want to know why?

This is like when a muslim tells you buddha is a prophet of Allah. how you feel?

So i always believe we shouldn't 'trick' the christians to believe in Buddha by telling them they can be a Buddhist and christian at the same time. Jesus and Buddha taught 2 very different things , one with a God, the other with no God.

Must show them respect they deserve. that's my idea. Sorry if i sound judgmental, not meant to be.

why?

No reason why i'm here. But since i'm already here, i'll be darn sure to taste every women out there before i die

then you shouldn't be here.

good luck in your quest.

well, no harm in listening to discussions. Knowledge does not require belief. Its just to be aware.

no idea wth you are talking about

im just answering the questions about why do they think that its okay for another religion to practice Buddhism

im not converting anyone here, nor am i saying who is right or wrong

why so nasty? ROFL

stating the obvious similarity is a sin here now?

its not easy to get rid of desire and craving...enlightenment is achieve when one becomes ones with everything around him ..dats my interpretation tho...nothingness can include everything...

yes, I salute u for saying this... a lot of misleading statement from Buddhist already... it needs to be stop before it get out of hand...

LIke that you want call me nasty?? what i did?

hiaya, tell you to be careful don't cincai tell them .... we buddhists ok if christians want to practice buddhism (more than welcome), but they might have some conflict themselves one.... later the christian trolls will start to come in and disturb already.

Gogo2, it's the same when others start to hijack buddhism and claim that Buddha is their prophet. It will sure draw a lot of ire from buddhists because it's not like that.

So it's the same thing, we cannot say Jesus is a enlightened being and that he taught buddhism (althought there is a lot of speculation of what he did in his missing 30 years).

It's the same thing when christians go around telling muslims that Allah in islam is the same as Allah in Bible..... sure make people fight one.

He felt compassion for the ghost, but at the same thing, he realized that he will not suffer that fate in his future lives anymore for he has exhausted all rebirths. With this , he smiled.

if they misinterpret it then its their fault, my answer to the question is crystal clear

if the christian trolls come, they are "trolling", what does that gotta do with my statement which is the truth? there is no trickery in my sentence

i provided the source, are you saying that im "tricking" people now?

hmm i like the trolls in this thread.

see how long we can all ignore them coz it does test the mental stability of the Buddhists here huhu.

sadly not much substantial questions yet. still waiting for one

its fine for people to be buddhist or christian but dont mix them up. they'll get what they want/need from religion if they stick to just one path because they can focus and they wont need to waste time working out and reconciling the clashes.

As Buddhists we should always respect other people's spiritual paths and not downtread them.

also, time to use the troll shield!

repeat
