Intolerant Christians.

I recently read another article (see the previous one here) on The Buddhist Channel about predatory practices and bullying by Christians in predominately Buddhist countries.I don't have the slightest intention to put one religion above another, to praise one and to blame another.

Then I came across Mr. Lothe's article in the UB POST and I did...

Buddhism and Evolution.

While Buddha didn't have much to say about the origins of life and the universe I find the Dharma to be very open to evolution. Evolution says that we evolved from other life forms and are therefore just new models of previous models of life which means that we must have genes and DNA that are similar and we do.We humans share some 96 percent of genetic material with chimpanzees which affirms my Buddhist belief that we are irrecoverably interconnected and dependent upon other life forms. We are...

It has enabled people living in very isolated communities where they might be the only Buddhist within hundreds...

Interesting article on proselytizing Buddhists in Asia titled, "No Thanks I'll Stick with Buddhism."

I'm more concerned about my own weaknesses right now. However, that being said I do think that some missionaries of other faiths are very disrespectful and not helping ease tensions between different religions.By Zyrius, The Buddhist Channel, July...
