More there would be a different emphasis re theoretical vs practical, and therefore also a different kind of education/training.so theorising is enough to establish truths without ever proving them
Well it is a pity that those that teach the relgion don't tell the murdering bastards that they are murdering bastards and are not Bhuddists.No it isn’t. This is the religion like all other religions that humans might choose to hide behind to excuse inhuman acts. Nowhere in the teachings of Buddhism will you find anything that encourages, condones or supports rape and murder.
That includes the con woman Anng San Suu Kyi.

If you are seeking inner peace then Buddhism is as good as anything to practice. A pity then that it has been persecuted in Pakistan, Afghanistan, India and China as evidenced by the destruction of it's ancient artefacts for being blasphemous in the eyes of the destroyers.Not a bad thing at all. There’s a marked intolerance to religion on this thread. It is slightly tangential but you touched on it with your comments about inner peace or calm. I’d lean towards Buddhism in my understanding of the causes of suffering and the way etc but I’ve no problem with whatever brings someone comfort if in gaining that they don’t negatively impact others
