A person is intelligent, a mob usually not. If everyone is rational and did everything to his best interest then you get chaos. Same if everyone did everything that benefits the environment. The idea of an utopian society is just an idea. It would not be reality. in the old jewish law, there is NEVER such a golden rule, just god's word and obey, smiting and killing. It is only until Jesus' time when he preached about this. this golden rule has been part of buddhism for ages and many have suspected that jesus went to india to understudy the philosophy of buddhism. That is why jesus' teaching is so similar to buddhism. |

Indeed, but many view buddhism as a religion. I see some buddhist monk worshipping money just like some churches. In my opinion Buddhism is more about philosophy then a religion. If you want to know how Jesus studied buddhism check out the movie, the man from earth. Jesus was a disciple or Buddha.

Lol, thanks, I'll watch it. He din die! He used tantric, yoga techniques to slow down his heartbeat! At least according to the movie.
here's the bbc documentary exploring on this topic. the transition from the usual hate-smite-stone old religion transit to a all one loving kind god is too sudden and abrupt. |
