Re: If you could ask the Buddha one question

Why has this post been changed, and what the hell is the point of asking a question if you can not get a Yes or No answer?

Re: Why do Americans not have to announce which country they are from?

Wel then, from now on, consider me a person who needs no introduction.
I am the most logical person you will ever meet.
Plus, might run for President in 2020.

Because someone needs to kick the Ass of God Dam Donald Trump.
Think I'm the right man to do it.

Re: Why do Americans not have to announce which country they are from?

Yet, your location is "India".
Where?'
India is a large country. Why do Indians not have to announce where there are from?
North, South, East. West? Middle?
Andhra Pradesh?
Don't get ahead of yourself. You might assume people do not know things they actually know.

Is there a Florida in India? If not, you can assume I'm in Florida, USA.

Re: Why do Americans not have to announce which country they are from?

Sorry, I should have mentioned that Florida is in the U.S. I'm from California, but live in Florida. Where is California? It is so hard to figure out. California being such a small place, that no one has ever heard about. Where the heck is that place? Also, Florida--there are so many other Floridas!...

Re: Is it wrong to pray to the Buddha?

Because, to "Pray", you have to believe that there is someone out there who can answer your prayers, Right?

Re: Is it wrong to pray to the Buddha?

I think Mike is right. Recollection of the Buddha is always good.
But, this is not like prayer.
