From: "Sodaiho-roshi" < I see religious leaders, political leaders, and teachers, boy and giirl scout leaders all going nuts in enraged argument. What's a good Buddhist to do?
That is really shocking to me. That people like Pat Robertson call for the assassination of elected leaders of other nations, and that people in positions of power have a laissez faire attitude that they are going to take whatever actions they need to succeed (such at the torture of frontline Iraqi grunts who have very little secret information); secret monitoring of Americans communications with any foreigners; forcing another nation's people to adopt Democracy (gee, isn't that like fighting for peace; or killing to preserve life?) Somewhere the concept of Democracy and the Bill of Rights seems to have been washed down the drain. ------------------------ Yahoo!
