| Comments: | You really know how to give'r, Snow. I'd give my right testicle to be you. No I wouldn't. Ha. Ha. |
| Name: | The Buddhist Swastika |
| Comments: | I will never give up the fight for Buddhist Swastika Awareness. It's not that it has a Nazi relation, it's just that most Americans are Christian, and so they use Religious Intolerance to Feign Ignorance, I've told many what it stands for, and they go and tell others that I'm a White Supremacist, I've actually caught them in the act.

| Comments: | I like the view here, wherever I am. |
| Name: | Ronny Pink |
| Comments: | Julie's hot, Mr. Snow. I should know ... I go out with her older sister. So go for it! That is, if you can still get it up! LOL! (P.S. We have all been here before ... haven't we???) |
| Name: | Julie Styles |
| Comments: | I'm impressed Mr. Snow. I'd really like to give you a go! |
| Name: | Filbert Smeckling |
| Comments: | Not bad at all, Snow. Better update some of your broken links though. Later ... |
| Name: | Serge LaMere |
| Comments: | Where was Buddha to help the Haitian people, Mr. Snow? |
| Name: | The Fool On The Hill |
| Comments: | Nice site, Snow. NOT really into religion, or philosophy for that matter; however, if you're going to be a Buddhist, you better be a damn good one. You know: Save the earth, and harm no livid thing ... later. |
| Name: | Akbar Laden |
| Comments: | Hey Snow, how about updating your site with some pics of chicks at a wet burqua contest? Nothing too racey mind you, but a little ankle would be nice. Thanx ahead of time and all that. Nice weather we're having. Hope it keeps up, as I hate over 30C days, don't you? All the best. |
| Name: | Gilbert Stone |
| Comments: | What do you think of Harper suspending parliament, Snow? Talk about snow jobs, eh. And what's with all the socialist-bashing by Day and the rest of the Reform Party trying to pass themselves off as the new Conservative Party? Do we have to relive Nazi Germany just to placate Western Canadians' inferiority complexes? What a shame, and what a political sham! Heil Harper! |
| Name: | Joshua Now |
| Comments: | I see the Conservatives are back in power up there, Mr. Snow. LOL! That's got to be bad for all you tree huggers. But hey, be kind to the earth anyway, as every little bit of love helps. Go out and plant a few bulbs and get over it. Love the earth with your devotion, and don't let the neo-cons get you down. The word is getting out about Control. |
| Name: | Sumi Long |
| Comments: | So much for the Beijing Olympics, Mr. Snow. The Chinese communists managed to impress a few foreign journalists with pristine toilets and the like, but I bet you a sack of wild rice that it will be just a matter of time before many Olympic atheletes come down with industrial disease. |
| Name: | Harvey Davidson |
| Comments: | What do you think of Henry Morgentaler getting the Order of Canada, Mr. Snow? Myself, I think it's great, as women should be allowed the freedom to choose and have abortions performed in a safe medical environment. Of course deranged Jesus freaks are going to beg to differ, but then religion causes all the trouble in the world. BTW, is Buddhism a religion? I sure the hell hope not. |
| Name: | Bob |
| Comments: | Interesting website, plenty info to keep one occupied. Could do with links to back up some of the claims though, as this site has many controversial issues. By the way, I'm from north Manchester, not London ! One thing I cannot agree with is the suggestion that the ancient religious symbol, the swastika, be condemned to death just because it was abused by a bunch of dickhead nazis and their idiot followers. Being of British stock, born and bred, half Scots/half English, throughout the 60's and 70's, I originally considered the swastika to be solely to do with nazi Germany. However, since my 20's I've been intrigued by the various eastern philosophies, from ying-yang to Daoism, and from Sufism to Buddhism. I have thus developed a deep interest of ancient Indian history and culture and Buddhism and its origins. Consequently, despite my western upbringing and education, which to a great extent is deeply entrenched within me (it is nigh on impossible to ignore the ethics developed as a child) I have a deep respect for the ethics of Buddhism, and consequently have come to hold the swastika in high esteem as do my Jain and Buddhist cousins alike. The reason for this is I understand the swastika to be the religious symbol it is and that the representation of the swastika as a nazi symbol is a basterdization of the true meaning. It is a MIS-representation, especially since the nazi party symbol turned it on its side (physically as well as metaphorically). Therefore it is a completely different symbol as far as I am concerned. If the right facing swastika represents strength and intelligence and the left facing swastika represents love and mercy, then the only swastika that represents the nazis is the original nazi distortion: the right-facing-backward-turned swastika. Allowing the hijacking of such an important religious/spiritual symbol by the nazis is akin to fascists hijacking the star-spangled banner, the union jack, or any other national flag, as well as any other religious symbol. |

| Comments: | I beg your pardon, I didn't promise you a rose garden, Mr. Snow. So what kind of fuckery is this? XXX |
| Name: | Hugo Summers |
| Comments: | Time to boycott the Commie Olympics, Mr. Snow. You know that's the only way to go! The Tibetan people must be liberated from under the oppressive yoke of the Red Chinese. Mao was a mass murderer anyway. |
| Name: | Giles Stinkowsky |
| Comments: | So what do you think of your new right-wing government up there in Canukistan, Snow? It's bound to keep all you Christian bashers in line, as there is only one God, and that is the conservative Christian God. Forget Buddha and all that Muslim Allah crapola, as they're both false prophets in the eyes of the Lord. Anyway, justice will be served to all those terrorist ragheads soon! They shall be wiped off the face of the earth to make room for good little Christian girls and boys. Just ask Harper or his sidekick Day. They know all about the Creator's Masterplan. |
| Name: | Joey Two Rivers |
| Comments: | The Great Spirit made me an Indian, Mr. Snow. What did he make you? And what does it matter? We are both here by the Great Spirit's will. I don't know if it's wrong for us to love our own, but we often do, even with the full knowledge that all men are brothers. |
| Name: | Uri Chong |
| Comments: | Gung Hay Fat Choy, old boy! Happy Year of the Rat, round eyes! You still fat! Ha! Ha! |
| Name: | George Street |
| Comments: | Alas! Poor Benazir Bhutto, Mr. Snow. Al Qaeda killed her because she was a powerful woman who had planned to let the Americans in the door if she won the general election. Of course Musharraf did nothing to protect her, as he too wanted her out of the picture. What a sad world we live in, but I believe that good will triumph over evil in the end. It has to, Mr. Snow. It just has to. Religion sucks! |
| Name: | Claude Hoffner |
| Comments: | Are you a religious dead head, Snow? Because if you are, you can kiss my hairy secular arse! Don't you know religion is mass delusion? Your kind make me puke! But hey, Happy Winter Solstice anyway, arsehole! Hope you've got a good looking babe to snuggle up with. Sex 'n' drugs 'n' rock 'n' roll, dude! That's all a body really needs comin' through the rye! Cheers!!! |
| Name: | Billy |
| Comments: | Seriously Snow, you've got a good site here. Keep up the great delusion. Loose your dreams and you will lose your mind to a world unkind. And for God's sake, man, find a good looking babe and settle down. You've got miles to go before you freak. Later, gator. |
| Name: | Billy Brothers |
| Comments: | Yo Snow! How's it hangin'??? LOL! A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Let's hope it's a good one, without any jeers. ;-) |
| Name: | Jacques Trudeau |
| Comments: | We are living in dangerous times, Mr. Snow. I applaud your effort to bring to the attention of ordinary people the wise and ethical teachings of the historical Buddha, who walked the earth long before Jesus Christ ever did. The Englightened One is the first real Prince of Peace, isn't he. Yes, that and a whole lot more. I'll return and visit your site again, so keep on updating. |
| Name: | Buddy Love |
| Comments: | Bee here now! LOFL! Get it??? Later ... |
| Name: | Ralph Chutney |
| Comments: | I see you Canucks welcomed the Dalai Lama with open arms! Don't you know that's gonna upset the commies? You won't be able to get any more cheapass lead-tainted products if you keep that up! LOL! BTW, nice site. |
| Name: | Jack Melonowski |
| Comments: | Far out, man! I can dig it! Buddha is all right with me! |
| Name: | Wilf Grove |
| Comments: | I highly suspect Fritz and Jazz are neo-Nazi brownshirt lovers, Mr. Snow. You just keep on keepin' on, and ignore the idle chit chat of white trash morons. I enjoy visiting your site, not to mention reading your thoughtful insights. Buddhists certainly are not the ones lording it over others in the name of some pie-in-the-sky God. The world would be a more peaceful place if Christians, Muslims, Jews and all the other religious types converted to Buddhism and focused all their energies on saving the planet for the generations to come. All you Armageddon lovers better face up to the fact that the future is unwritten. |
| Name: | Fritz Meister |
| Comments: | Are you a communist or something? And how much of this material is truly your own, Mr. Snow? If that's your real name. I bet you're a tree-hugger and all that. Go out and get a job in the real world and stop boring us with all this Buddhism crapola. Hell, for all I know, you could be a towel head on top of everything else. Osama's your mama, right? We're on to you and your kind. You better watch what you have to say, Mister. |
| Name: | Jazz Shrimpton |
| Comments: | Heavenly Father, please help the Snow dude come to terms with his closet Christian side. Buddha is just a once-upon-a-time story, but Christ is the REAL thing! Confess yours sins, Mr. Snow, and change your pagan ways. It's never too late to ask for forgiveness from God, and salvation from Jesus Christ, who died for your sins. You better get on board because the Rapture is coming, just after we carpet-bomb Iran. Excellent! |
| Name: | Mel Wild |
| Comments: | I see you've been updating your website, Mr. Snow. A few new pages are always welcome. You've done a good job of focusing on the enemies of Buddhism. Human rights are being trampled in countries all over the world thanks to the ongoing rush for quick profits. It's hard to stop all the killing and abuse when supposedly civilized nations scramble to exploit other poorer nations' natural resources. Sure, mainland China must share a great deal of the blame, but other countries have their fingers in the pie too. Shame! Shame! |
| Name: | Conroy Putzmann |
| Comments: | You haven't been by the store lately. I've got some old trail mix I would like to try out on your new dental work. Must be nice. Have you seen my chitgrin lately? I'm still better than you though, and stay away from glucose-fructose, eh. BTW, my friend out at the savage reservation grew a good crop of tobacco this year. I've been chain-smoking it for a while now and still haven't died from cancer. Hmm ... must be all those shots of urine, not to mention the weekly enemas. |
| Name: | Shane Vegas |
| Comments: | LOL! I like The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ page, Mr. Snow. It has a certain zing of truth to it, and I'm sure it's gonna upset a lot of heavily deluded Jesus freakz who stumble on to it by chance. Talk about being blinded by the links! Keep up the good ridicule! BTW, your page designs are excellent. Happy Thanksgiving. Later. |
| Name: | John Dempster |
| Comments: | Those military dickwads in Burma sure are lowlife scumsuckers, eh. I'd like to slip some LSD into their rice gruel and really teach 'em a lesson! Then I'd make them all go through sex changes to see if it would give 'em better dispositions! And you can bet your bottom loonie China is aiding and abetting their brutality towards the people. I'm all for boycotting the summer games too, but then I hate sports, especially hockey. And don't even get me going about golf! |
| Name: | Sara Lee |
| Comments: | Great ongoing coverage of what's going down in Burma and Tibet, Mr. Snow. It's nice to see that you continuously update your major Buddhism-related pages. Keep up the good reporting, and always acknowledge your sources. I for one will certainly boycott the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008. China is one of the biggest human rights abusers on the planet, not to mention polluters. |
| Name: | Uri Chong |
| Comments: | Hey round eyes, why you tell everyone to boycott Chinese Olympic Games? All you Canadians fat! Ha! Ha! We soon make you pay in big way! China's rising! |
| Name: | Zak Melon |
| Comments: | Come together over me, for I am the anti-Christ. I want to destroy books and papers, oh yeah! NO, seriously, we should all be a little more tolerant of other points of view. That way we won't become the enemy if you catch my drift. Sure, there will always be white trash by any other name, but the evil that they spew can be overcome by words and acts of loving kindness. We are the world afterall. Later. |
| Name: | Gaylord Johnston |
| Comments: | LOL! That Shrimpton character really has it out for you. What a neo-con dork! He must be an American fascist, you know, a proud member of the Christer Right. Hmm ... talking about the American Christian Right, I suggest you read Chris Hedge's American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War On America. It's a real page turner. |
| Name: | Jazz Shrimpton |
| Comments: | The Rapture is coming, man, and non-believers like yourself will be hung out to dry! But you can save yourself; that is, work out your own salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of God, if you can get your act together. So enough with this Buddha bullshit and get back to reading the Holy Bible if you know what's good for you. And that goes for all you Muslims and Jews too! Convert to Christianity before it's too late! For war is just a shout away! Onward Christian soldiers! Forever onward! The enemies of Christ are at the gate! |
| Name: | Harry Trotter |
| Comments: | Hey, I heard the Britney Spears chick is gonna shave her head again and become a Buddhist nun! Can you imagine that??? I mean she looked really good when she had long blonde hair. Hell, who am I kidding ... I'd like to do her anyway, shaved head and all! LOL! Now where wasn't I ... oh yes, peace on earth, man! LOL!!! |
| Name: | Ian Soutar |
| Comments: | Hi James. Just checking out your webpages ... look great as usual and more refined as time passes. |
| Name: | Gorgon Parks |
| Comments: | Apocalypse Now! The END is near! Mother, I want to ... |
| Name: | Liam McFarkley |
| Comments: | Nice site, I'm sure the birds will like it. BTW, do you like birds with big jugs? That Kwan Yin bird looks like she has small ones. Later. |
| Name: | Uri Fermaldahyde |
| Comments: | I hear the Maitreya dude is here already. What's all this hype about peace and love and understanding? Are you trying to tell me it's NOT a dog eat dog world out there? Hello! Is there anybody out there? Just bark if you can hear me ... |
| Name: | Chip Douglas |
| Comments: | Cable guy! Cable guy! LOFL! |
| Name: | Ron Cheri |
| Comments: | Happy New Year, Mr. Snow! How's it hanging? LOL! Seriously though, the world is in fucking trouble, man. And what are you Buddhists going to do about that? Walk around in circles and chant until the sacred cows come home? Give me a break! |
| Name: | Conroy Putzmann |
| Comments: | You and I are definitely NOT on the same page, not that there's anything wrong with that. BTW, I bet you're wondering what page I'm on, no? Well, if you really have to know, it's the Smokers' Page. I'm never going to quit, so drop by my health food store when you're in town, and I'll tell ya all about the better way, my way of course, because I'm better than you, and that's a fact, Jack! Now excuse me whilst I drink a cup of my own urine. |
| Name: | Joy Meckling |
| Comments: | Good show, Mr. Snow! Nice to see you covering Kwan Yin. One gets tired of all the regular patriarchal bullshit on the WWW. The Tomb of Christ Website is a gas! LOL! That should set all the evangelicals off. You know how they can't bear to be wrong. ;-) |
| Name: | Hans Flix |
| Comments: | I don't know how I got here, but what the heck, I'm here and I mind as well check out your site, or whatever you call it. You possess good Web design skills, as many of your pages definitely have visual impact. I'm a not into Buddha or Buddhisim the way you obviously are, but it takes all kinds I guess. Myself I'm gnostic or agnostic, depending on what I hold to be true or not true at the time. If we've all been here before, then a lot of us have forgotten a lot. So much for trailing clouds of glory. Advance without fear. Ciao. |
| Name: | Zoe Harrison |
| Comments: | When is that other Buddha guy coming, Mr. Snow? I mean how many more innocent souls have to be put through the cosmic wringer before the world is once again set back in order? I've bought a few square inches of gold leaf for the Maitreya Project like many other kindred hearts I suspect, but is that really good enough? Can inner peace on a massive scale really bring outer peace and harmony on a massive scale, or is this all just another pipe dream destined to go up in smoke and mirrors? There's the rub! |
| Name: | Jules Blackmore |
| Comments: | The world is in fuckin' trouble, man. And you know what? There's gonna be no Second Coming. The sky ain't gonna open, and no benevolent God - or Son of - is gonna come stridin' down some Heavenly flight of stairs to put it all back together again. Can you dig that, man? Can you set your philosophy or religion aside long enough to see things as they truly are? I hope so, brother, because I'm counting on intelligent folk like you to turn things around before it's too late for all of us! Ciao. Have a glad awakening. |
| Name: | Bob Grotowski |
| Comments: | Not bad, man! Not bad at all! I'm going to come back and read some of the words next time! Right now I think I'll lift a few of your pics for my own site, which isn't up yet. I think I'll call it ... well, that's a little too deep right now too! I mean I've only had a computer for three weeks, and to be honest with you, I'm all tuckered out from surfin' the porn sites! Can you relate? I mean Buddha wasn't a virgin was he? He must have diddled a chick or two! LOL! |
| Name: | Dwayne McGorgon |
| Comments: | Hey Salma, how ya doing??? I told you it was a great site! I like CKUA myself. I'm sure Mr. Snow must have lived in Edmonton at one time or the other. Go Oilers! Go! Ha! Ha! See you at the party. Ciao. |
| Name: | Salma Brewster |
| Comments: | Gorgeous site. I see you don't water down your graphics, which is nice now that a lot of people are on cable anyway. Don't get me wrong, as I'd wait for your graphics to download on dial-up too. A friend of a friend told me about your site, how it's a mix of Buddhism and local topics of interest like the weather and the news. Nice radio links too. Phantom FM is an interesting station. All the best. |
| Name: | Joe |
| Comments: | I dunno how I ended up here, man. I was looking for pictures of good looking chicks when I came across your Kwan Yin page of all things! She's a little too homely looking for me, but I've got a friend who might like her. He likes anything with a heartbeat, but then she's dead, right? I think I saw some flick KY was in, and the Asian chick who played her was pretty good looking if memory serves me well. Oh well, have a nice day. I'm an anarchist at heart, and I want to destroy books and papers, etc. I don't read no books anyway, but sometimes I read the articles in Playboy and Penthouse when I get tired of flogging my dolphin. LOL! Later ... |
| Name: | William Schnell |
| Comments: | What do you think about all those ragheads destroying graven images and the like? Did the Taliban get your blood boiling when they blew up those two Buddhas in the Bam Valley? And now there's talk in Egypt of Muslim fanatics planning to attack Egyptian statues, etc. Where is this all going to end up? You liberals make me sick! You have no balls! You'll be chanting peace and love when the Muslim horde overrun the civilized world! Shame! Shame! |
| Name: | John Salsbury |
| Comments: | Good Show! I always like a good show, mate! I've been here and I've been there: here, there and everywhere, and I've always enjoyed a good show! But what's with the Buddha's big ears, mate? Does he think he's Jumbo the Safety Elephant or something? Or is he from one of them African tribes they haven't Christianized yet? Well, I've got to go, as my better half wants me to fire up the grill, sport! We're having legs of lamb tonight! That's right, legs of lamb! BTW, is it true that Buddha chap died from a hearty helping of bad pork? I read that somewhere, but I don't think it was on your site. Talk to you later, mate! I've got a cold one going, and I don't want it to lose its head! |
| Name: | Claire Walker |
| Comments: | Nice site, Mr. Snow. I enjoyed reading about Kwan Shih Yin. It's nice to see that you pay tribute to the female Buddha; that is, to the other Guiding Light of Asia! May Kwan Yin protect your house and soul. xxx |
| Name: | Karl Witherspoon Jr. |
| Comments: | LOL! - That last guy was really funny! It's always nice to have a little comic relief on a pseudo-religious site. Hey, this is a pseudo-religious site isn't it? I have an aversion to fundamentalists. They tend to make the world a very small place. All religions are once-upon-a-time stories anyway. Well, that's what Salman Rushdie intimates in The Satanic Verses. BTW, you wouldn't happen to be whispering your own satanic verses in other people's wax-clogged ears would you? Gotcha! |
| Name: | Joey |
| Comments: | Do you think Buddha really came down from Tushita Heaven to show us all a better way, Mr. Snow? And what about him already being able to talk when he landed? Supposedly he told his old lady that this was his last birth! Go figure! Buddha's mother sure was a good looker. Indian chicks can be quite voluptuous. I've got me an Indian chick from up north, eh. Her ass is as flat as the prairies, but then it doesn't hang over chairs at the dinner table like the fat asses of Britsh stock, so I guess I should consider myself extra lucky, eh. How about you? What kind of chick do you have, or are you celibate? I like to cel a bit here and there if you catch my drift, but I bet you're not buying, eh. BTW, nice pictures. I like books with lots of pictures, especially books with lots of pictures of naked babes. That's why I know I couldn't be no Buddhist monk living on handouts and a prayer wheel. Oh man, pardon me, hmm ... |
| Name: | Jason Bottoms |
| Comments: | Nice site, Mr. Snow. Wife is calling, have to go. |
| Name: | Samantha |
| Comments: | A totally awesome sight, Mr. Snow, even if it doesn't meet the rigid requirements of Buddhist fundamentalists. It just goes to show us all that religious fundamentalism of any kind tends to shrink the mind and make one less tolerant of those who don't follow the rules. I say this because I've read a few reviews about your site on more traditional Buddhist Web sites. I think you're too liberal-minded for their more conservative tastes. Oh well, I see others have browsed your pages and come away with a positive spin on your obvious love of historical Buddha. BTW, Happy Spring Festival! I'm sure there's still a few Buddhists left in other parts of China, and not just in Tibet. Later ... |
| Name: | Uri Chong |
| Comments: | BTW, what's with you round eyes trying to tell the rest of the world how to think and live? You all fat! Ha! Ha! |
| Name: | Uri Chong |
| Comments: | January 29 is Chinese New Year, Mr. Snow. It is Year of the Dog, and my countrymen say there is going to be much upheavel in the world. Make sure you come to Dunhuang soon and see Buddha statues, OK? China is rising! We soon blow Bush out of the water. Ha! Ha! |
| Name: | Jeremy |
| Comments: | Is it true Jesus Christ was a Buddhist? I heard he survived his crucifixtion and returned to the Kashmiri Valley to live out the rest of his days showing others a better way. Supposedly he died at the ripe old age of eighty, and is buried in a mausoleum in Srinager. Gosh, that should send all the Christian fundis for a loop, eh! Good! They need to face reality before they bring the worst upon us all. Hope you don't mind, but I've used a few of your pics on my site which isn't up yet. When it is, I'll get back to you. Happy Spring Festival, bud! Later. |
| Name: | Sheri Thompson |
| Comments: | Nice site! I'm an atheist at heart, but I do like the good Lord Buddha! I've sent you an e-mail. Bye. |

| Comments: | Hello Mr Snow FYI Buddhist philosophy and meditation classes are held every Monday evening at 7pm at the Central Public Library downtown London. An ordained monk is brought in from Hamilton by our group for an hour of philosophy, a small break and a guided meditation. Join us any Monday eve! Cheers (non alcoholic of course!) Jme |
| Name: | Hank |
| Comments: | Sorry about that, partner. I've been up for two days drinking 150 proof rum! The old lady left me last week and I've been turnin' on everyone. Thirty years of marriage gone down the drain, and all I got to show for it is a few of her dolls. Christ, what would a grown woman want with dolls anyway? I really didn't mean those nasty things I said earlier ... O.K., I did! But I just thought I'd let you know I'd still go out and have a pint with you if we met. |
| Name: | Hank Waters |
| Comments: | Jesus is our Saviour. You'd be better off reading the Holy Bible than messing around with this Buddhist crap. You liberals are all the same. Oh well, hell awaits those who worship false idols. BTW, why does Buddha look like a she-male shocker? Is that to get all the sexual perverts interested in his distorted world view? |
| Name: | Ed Sanders |
| Comments: | Was looking for some good Buddha pics when I happened on to your site via Google. Surfed a few of your pages and will definitely return again. All the best, etc. |
| Name: | Julie Simpson |
| Comments: | Hi there! Nice site! I didn't know there was a female Buddha! Kwan Shih Yin, right? If all men are brothers then all women are sisters, right? Together we can make a better world I'm sure. P.S. Happy Holidays from south of the border! |
| Name: | Gerry Adams |
| Comments: | Happened upon your site the other day, and spent a considerable amount of time browsing your pages. It's good to see that you cite your sources, and give credit where credit is due. I'll be sure to tell my friends here in Ireland to check @buddhavision out. The Light of Asia still shines brightly thanks to people like yourself. |
| Name: | Amanda Johnston |
| Comments: | I enjoyed surfing your site. You are definitely helping to further Buddha's work in the material world. All the best. |
| Name: | Morris Westerman |
| Comments: | Nice graphics and Web page design. I'm a Christian myself, but I can understand Buddha's appeal. |
| Name: | Clif |
| Comments: | I do not agree that the swastika should be scrapped in the west. In America, we like to tell other nations that America values personal freedom above all, especially religious freedom. Then we hypocritically turn around and deny Americans the right to express their religious beliefs if the symbol in question is a swastika. I do agree that, according to conventional logic, the Christian cross should be as villified as the swastika. After all, the Ku Klux Klan has misused that symbol for the past 140 years. If we are to apply the same standard of judgement to the cross as is applied to the swastika, one would have to agree that the cross is a hate symbol. |
| Name: | Jason Wilson |
| Comments: | As a Muslim I want to say that for a practioner of Buddhism I would ask you to rexamine the principle of speech. It is not true and just to say that Muslims villified Buddhist statues every where they went. One great example is of the temple in Borobodur Indonesia. Indonesia is an example where thousands of Buddhist embraced the spiritual dimension of Islam brought by the people of Hadramaut Yemen into that lands. I went there to get married, and I touched the Buddah's toe at the top of the temple and I said to myself all things are by the power of Allah and I asked the Buddah for peace. I don't see that as fanatical and neither do the 200 million Muslims in Indonesia. Everyone is different remember permanence is a dillusion. |

| Name: | James |
| Comments: | Hi! I'm James T. Snow, the Webmaster of @buddhavision and the London Calling page. I hope you will take some time to view some of my Buddhism-related pages. If nothing else, the pictures may amuse you. It's always good to take a look at another point of view about human existence, especially when you're the product of a Christian upbringing, or any other religious upbringing where fundamentalism remains a potential threat to freedom of thought and expression about the meaning of life here and now. We've all witnessed what has happened in the Middle East, the rise of religious fundamentalism I mean. Well, believe it or not, the same thing could and can happen here. Look at the rise of the Christian Right in the United States. So you see, the world is what you make of it, not what your religious masters tell you to make of it. That's why I've always walked with Buddha, because I know the future is unwritten. I'm no Buddhist purist, no religious fanatic toeing the hard dogmatic line; in fact, most hardcore Buddhists would turn their backs on me. Oh well, to each his own. I've always walked my own path anyway, and believe me, sometimes it's better that way. All the best, and please consider becoming enlightened for the sake of all living things, that, by the way, need your love and devotion now more than ever. |
