Well, we did get some interesting comments. And, clearly, there is a difference between theory and practice in many cases. But you can have a slightly more positive take on it than Steve's. Disregarding the cases where what is happening is simply wrong (which will happen in any organisation), one could say that most Thai's just want to just get on with practicing Buddhism it as part of their lives. It's not that they don't take it seriously, they just don't feel the need to discuss it, they feel they know what they are doing. As Steve says, it's often Farang who obsess about minute details. Sometimes, I suspect, missing the whole point of what it's about...
