  1. You could always visit a Buddhist temple or study Buddhist scriptures in general. You have the internet at your disposal :)

  2. Similar to the Analects by Confucius. Buddhism also takes elements from Hinduism.

  4. Angel Wings Yes, I study theology. Buddhism allows female priests, as such with Catholicism with nuns. This individual practices Shinto, and there are female priests in Shinto, but it’s rare. I do agree. I’m simply an atheist who studies everything :)

  5. SchnitzelBerry 13 There is no such thing as antisemitism. It’s called anti-Jewish or anti-Judaism.

  6. SchnitzelBerry 13 No. Semitic is simply part of a language system in the Middle East. For example, Arabic, Hebrew, and Syriac are some of those languages, so it doesn’t include just the Jews, it includes all Arabs. I’m an atheist who’s studies theology, and I’ve studied the 613 commandments in Judaism. What many people believe is simply propaganda that was formed during an argument between a German and a Jew during the late 1800s.

  7. As an atheist, I do respect those religions. However, I have agree that Buddhism is definitely the most humble and refined.

  17. Governor Greenlight I am a historian who continues to study theology and everything else. Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are not all bad. Yes, they have contradictions and faults, but they do have many verses that give positive insights on life, or how life was like, two thousand years ago. Hinduism came before Buddhism, and both Jainism and Buddhism take elements from Hinduism, except they disregard the caste system. All these religions have produced change, and each one has produced different ideologies, which leads to sects being created. Islam had many golden ages. Christianity created the renaissance. I could go on, but not all of these religions are as bad as you claim. But again, I totally understand where you’re coming from, since I thought that way until I started to study religion and paganism.
