Thank you very much to the both of you, and yes i do have problems reading at times and i've never seen those boards, i will check them out now though.

Yes I personally knew it would be a hard topic, especially dealing with the religion and how that itself does vary from different countries, so I hate to throw a bunch of different cultures into one pot, so to speak. I think in a lot of ways religion when not mixed in with society has very little to do with relationships, besides marriages and a few other things, but my group thinks otherwise I guess, especially since some of them are from backgrounds where their culture/religion go hand in hand. But now we've made it so broad of a topic that its really going to cover just the basics. Its only a 10-15 min presentation and we are each doing a different religion, 4/5 religions in general. So its going to be interesting to see how it pans out since that isn't enough time to cover the basics of one, let alone 4! So yes I agree with what you are saying.

I think I'm just going to stick with the basics of buddhism itself and not worry about trying to incorporate a culture, since my portion is only going to be a minute or so.

Because of this project I've researched Buddhism itself a fair bit now and it seems very very interesting.

sorry this kind of went off on a tangent/rant.
