Good plan, I too will waste no more attention on the lame duck here.

Trump was always going to claim election fraud, no matter what the outcome was. He claimed fraud in 2016 when he won. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTr...

I imagine that some will capitalize on the momentum of a ‘stolen election’ and therefore never concede that it was fair.

I’ve always liked the word schadenfreude. It can be deeply satisfying.

And Russia appreciates your efforts in the last few years. Still a lot of work ahead though, stoking resentment over a stolen election and whatever el...

He’ll probably just continue to be an embarrassing sore...https://media1.tenor.com/images/983be8cb0ada681858009a5b8c4857de/tenor.gif?itemid=13585895

The New York Times also. I guess Breitbart will call it next. :razz:

You gals run along now, I’m just getting warmed up. :lol:

He’s probably busy looking for a new income stream.

Oh? So Buddha ain’t the top dog? :worry:

It’s not a huge generalization at all, religious folks are just as messed up, if indeed not more messed up, than non. And it’s not pessimistic because...

Right, even if Biden wins, this is the hard pill to swallow. No excuses this time, everyone knows who he is and they want more. He's a true reflection...

You're missing the point entirely. The point is that if religious people actually believed what they profess to believe they would act accordingly, bu...

Exactly, this is how religious people are. If the religious truly believed they would act accordingly. If they believed that there were Gods, ghosts, ...

Just to be clear, you agree that Buddhism might not be true?

I beginning to wonder if you know the meaning of honesty.

You wrote: You are saying that what he found was the truth. Are you saying now that what he found may be false? You agree that it can be called supern...

What I mean is that it’s not philosophical to accept that something is true based on mere authority, and authority that has access to supernatural kno...

Philosophically, you would need to show how it's true, but that's not possible.

You misunderstand, no philosophy teaches truth, it studies fundamental questions, etc, so to say that Buddhism is philosophy is to say that it does no...

Then Buddhism studies, is concerned with worldly affairs, and doesn't contain truths but only theory.

As I've pointed out, considering the extremely dubious success rate of the cessation of suffering everyone should seriously question their faith in Bu...

No one has claimed that it’s only faith. Not sure what that even means.

They say that Stalinism resulted in 6-9 million deaths. Perhaps Trump can beat that if reelected.

Can you explain how he's not a real politician? or how his methods are unorthodox?

Everyone knows Trump...

The Biden goons didn't know that Biden wasn't on the bus? If so, they probably were dumb enough to slam a car on the freeway.

Did you watch and understand the video?

“The at-fault vehicle may be the white SUV and the victim appears to be the black truck” You’re the one choosing to see “may be” as fact, apparently.

Then how do you know the vid I posted is false?

So you have no idea of who they are?

By evil I assume that you mean liberal?

Superhero with a thousand faces.

Buddhism is about the cessation of suffering and not merely finding inner ease. There are secular ways of finding ease for ourselves that doesn’t rely...

Yup, the unfortunate result of returning to earth after the wondrous transcendent is often an inflated ego the size of a small galaxy.

So, a few more than 7 but still an infinitesimally low number, and the 7 did it on their own? The efficacy of the teaching is appalling. Point is, if ...

So not much difference between the cessation of sufferings or Buddhahood and a great teacher? And what’s the difference between the 7 Buddha’s and tho...

In truth it’s authority, metaphysics, and solidarity. If it were otherwise Buddhism would have been abandon centuries ago, because out of the millions...

There have been at least 30,000 coronavirus infections and 700 deaths as a result of 18 campaign rallies President Trump held from June to September. ...

It's very hard to imagine a worse candidate but if it were possible I suppose that I would vote for Trump, being the lesser of two evils. :vomit:

Welcome, my brotha!

I think maybe the “truths” of your religious political beliefs are showing.

In Buddhism refuge is taken in the Buddha (ultimate authority), the Dharma (the nature of reality or metaphysics), and the Sangha (tribe). Fits the pp...

Unless the meaning is something like, oh, I don't know, Buddhist Romanticism, then you write a whole damn book about it.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yes, that Buddhism is a religion. I haven't argued against the idea that some individual's regard for Buddhism is to some extent influ...
