Well...the World has gone to hell. The two religions of peace are attacking and killing each other.

Pin, I think that article talks about the Myanmar Army killing the Muslims...not the Buddhist monks, and the OP talks about the monks thanking someone for killing, which goes against what little I do know of Buddhism. Though, to be fair, there are several lines of Buddhism depending on the country/people, and apparently the Burmese version of Buddhism is a bit more fundamentalist...

Still, it's not like some old Shaolin kung-fu movie with renegade monks roaming Myanmar and killing Muslims...though it would be cool to see if their mouths really did lag behind what they said...I wanna know how to do that...

Almo...respectfully, there are some rather large differences between Buddhism and Islam. Saying "if one isn't a religion then the other isn't either" isn't true...Islam requires a belief in one, all-powerful God and his laws...Buddhism pretty much ignores whether there is a god or gods or not and focuses on living a right life to eliminate suffering. Not that people can't pervert and corrupt, but I'm just going to have to disagree on this...

I think you’re equating things that aren’t equatable and have zero to do with why each is commonly CONSIDERED a religion, and have zero to do with any similarities of belief. That’s a different discussion.
