Hell, I'm addicted to how wrong your flag message is -- I just started reading it again!
*laughing* -- "no, no, no, no... no". Definitely don't do it. Especially, now that you've 'thought' about it. What would you think of the hunter's house with a big flag of golden (anglo) Jesus? Or Zeus? Or Satan? Its a symbol... burn the damn thing if you're in the mood. Don't hold it more important than what it represents (not even for an instant). If you had *real* balls (more than I got, I suspect) -- you would bury the hatchet and go along with the hunters you like most on a trip. Don't actually have to shoot anything (or whimper, or moan) -- just to watch learn about the good parts of your fellow human/monster. How can you soothe their needs with less violent means until you walk in their shoes? A flag... sheez... SO impetulant. Better to take 10 steps inward than one step outward. Oops.

I am going to hang the Universal Buddhist flag on my front porch. This flag is not only for awareness in the community, but for my own awareness, to remind myself of the 5 precepts I have taken. Only time will tell what unfolds after this move. As I continue to learn, I hope my movements will be like that chess comic strip :) Thanks again for all the insights and suggestions from all members.
