Then why should this thread be in RWI?

Why not in Kopitiam as those in Christian and Islam thread? There, all trollers get reported and the trolling posts gets removed.
But here i see so many arguments and stuffs, shouldnt it be in All About Religion thread?

This buddhist thread ought to be for buddhists to gather and for others to get to know buddhism, but all i've seen here between SPikemarlene, teongpeng, unknown warrior, dreamer101 etc are all debating!

Why cant this thread be moved to kopitiam?

Reported this thread for mods to take action.

I dont see a purpose of this thread as its a duplicate of All About Religion thread.

You fellas should stop debating.

All religions are bollocks.

If this is a GROUP thread, then it should be to GROUP people who call themselves as Buddhists, regardless if its anything to do with religion or not.

The thread titled LYN BUDDHISM RETREAT....now why the word "RETREAT" is being there?

for you bollocks to debate about what buddhism really is, or for buddhists to lounge and hang out?

you trollers pls take your debates elsewhere.

You should not even be in this thread.

Religion sucks. Avoid at all costs

The thing is, if its a thread to discuss on buddhism is in RWI, shouldnt there be threads to discuss on other religious/philosophical stuffs too?

Well, i see how ineffective REPORT button has become. Why they are so biased towards Buddhism?

Does this also mean that buddhists and non-buddhists can banter and chat and even organize meetups and events using this thread even if its in RWI?

I've reported this thread. No news from the 3 mods in charge of RWI. Probably they are looking for feedbacks.

Ahwang should be responsible more on kopitiam since he's a staff there.

Fren, pls set this to group thread also. That way you can expand this to many versions and gather buddhists together.

And also, do update the 1st post on any relevant points you picked up here, for easier reference, so no need go scouting page by page ya. like what most group threads does

Advise to give you:

1) For buddhism thread, put in GROUP tag, as in christian and islam. Once u do this, no trolls go in

2) http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1520928 shows how stupid joe_mamak is. He didnt heed my advise of putting in a GROUP tag, but put in serious talk instead...and in the end, all he got was butthurt trolls

3) Dont be as stupid as joe_mamak.

HEY!!!!!

your brother icyfawkes kena ban izzit? I thought there should be another one call waterfawkes? then woodfawkes?

90% chinese are not buddhists by devotion. Just by face only. Mostly all tao people

Because they worship tao, tao tell them to bluff ppl put buddhist la. its all pre planned.

buddhist no hypocrite la. since its not religion also. its way of life. so all campur aduk all also boleh

Typical indian man hair...all curly

but this one is more like braided, but why the chingky eyes and facial features?

buddha is an INDIAN! not a chinese!

Answer is simple. You live your life out off your karma. cultivation for 100000 years in life of rebirths.

Joe's thread is exactly the same as this thread for Q&A

dupe thread here.

Dude, don't you read?

I've told firefawkes to set this as a group thread, but in return he reported me for advising him on that and remained adamant on not putting in group thread. So i had to report this thread as a dupe thread of joe_mamaks and a religious one, which shouldnt be here.

Use your brains for once.

Already answered.

you live off your bad karma. until you can no longer generate karma by cultivation of your consciousness, which takes years.
how to cultivate? you meditate and dont generate anymore bad karma.

Why did you report my 2nd? You made a wrong assumption that group thread dont beat trolls, i countered it with facts.

yeezai also wants it to be a group thread, but you're adamant against it.

Go and report all you want. This thread will go down. Its still against rules

what the.... did i see a thread merged in here???

They believe there is karma

they believe there is after life

they believe there are supernatural humans with supernatural powers called dewa

they believe the Yahweh god is also a dewa

though they tell you you don't have to believe to be a buddhist, but the core of buddhisms are centered on the supernatural ability to gain rebirth inside samsara. Thats the core.

Otherwise, its just a moral code. So it should not be called Buddhism if there are not supernatural elements inside buddhism.

A clear definition of buddhism already has supernatural elements in it. So yes, it is a religion.
