Sadly, the evidence supports your premise, so I will have to agree.

Pathetic. These Theravadan monks in Burma are beyond ridicule. Everything they do here goes against the Pali Canon.

Most people who kills makes use of religion for their evil deeds. Inherently, they themselves are evil. People of different faiths do it. I have no faith in organised religion. I would only like to call myself a spiritualist.

I agree with you, gandarloda, it is why I call myself a 'contemplative' or a 'mystic.'
