Is Buddhism the most slave tier religion? My understanding of it is that the goal of Buddhism is non existence. Like no wonder Asians have had a history of being crushed under the feet of tyrannical regimes, it seems like they all just want to die.
>>18581410Hi I'm an ignorant retard that didn't do any reading on the subject wtf is this???
>>18581414How am I wrong?
>>18581416By posting. Retard.
>>18581419No argument detected, opinion discarded.
>>18581410One who has attained nirvana neither exists nor does not exist. It is beyond all conceivable human categories.
>>18581410Buddhism is all about the middle way. They are not annihilationists nor extreme pacifists. https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.072.than.html
>>18581482That's nonsense.>>18581485Yeah, but what happens after you die according to them?
>>18581518"Freed from the classification of consciousness, Vaccha, the Tathagata is deep, boundless, hard to fathom, like the sea. 'Reappears' doesn't apply. 'Does not reappear' doesn't apply. 'Both does & does not reappear' doesn't apply. 'Neither reappears nor does not reappear' doesn't apply."

>>18581410China is hostile to religion and they get defeated easily
>>18581410>My understanding of it is that the goal of Buddhism is non existence.Wrong. The endgame is to see with clarity what actually exists.
>>18581410Christianity demands you open your asshole to be gaped by the big J.
>>18581969It isn’t hostile, but it must conform to their sinocentric worldview and not challenge the state. Why Buddhism in east asia has multiple schools and no central figurehead.
>>18581410You're conflating the advanced spiritual goals of religion with how its mainly practiced.Buddhism as the laity mostly practice it traditionally, doesn't have Nirvana as the goal. Instead lay Buddhists opt to gain merit (good karma) by doing positive actions like supporting Bhikkhus and performing religious incantations and rituals.>>18581518>Yeah, but what happens after you die according to them?You're reborn in a new body and realm. Only stream-enterers and arahats are destined towards Nirvana
