There is no real print forany of the religions you misquote-nothing from nothing leaves nothing .

@dreinstein27 It seems you have a profound ignorance of Eastern Religions. That's typical of most Christians, I have found. 

[dreinstein27]

Just saying it doesn't make it so. You want it to be so . There are many pieces of advice to have a happy life-meditation,prayer to god ,specific rules etc. The Golden rule....can you site scriptures from the Buddist book or not ? Or -do you not really know it. My guess-you have no idea.

If we have a national day of prayer...why do you get bent out of shape on the cross at the WTC? It shouldn't bother you at all that people like their religion(whatever it be).

@dreinstein27 Clearly you don't know anything about Buddhism. While there are two main Buddhist texts, Buddhism isn't like Christianity in that they don't rely on the texts. Doing to would be having an attachment to the texts and that would be not be Buddhism. Second, as I said there are other Eastern religions which have the GR too. Like Confucianism. You will find the Golden Rule in the Analects. But I don't have it in front of me so I can't quote it at you. Do your own research

@dreinstein27 Second, National Days of Prayer do bother me for the same reason. They are a violation of the first and fourteenth amendments. Two wrongs don't make a right. 10 or more wrongs certainly don't make a right. Stop forcing your religion in everything that is American. It is unconstitutional, rude, and discriminates against everyone who is not Christian.

@dreinstein27 Finally, I noticed that you couldn't defend your position on the other topics, so I'll take that as an admission on your part that you don't know what you are talking about. Thanks for playing.

Go back and force your atheist views on Abe Lincoln-and other founders of this country (which is based on freedom of religion without persecution)

@dreinstein27 Criticism is not venom. Christians show real venom when they force their religion on everyone else. Just take your cross and put in in a church where it belongs.

@dreinstein27 Leave Islam untouched? I have a pretty strong record of criticizing Islam. As it so happens, I actually get more death threats from Christians than from Muslims.

@dreinstein27 Buddhism has the Golden Rule as well as others. You should really learn about other people's religions then you will understand where your own religion comes from.
