More stuttering than anything else

My Shakti of White Racial Enlightenment, Nicole Pettibone has almost the same tea cups as mine

Why do Buddha statues always portray Buddha as fat

Especially Jade Buddha statues

Speaking of which many South Asian deities are portrayed kinda fat

When does brett come in here

everpresent

there are different portrayals of buddha

the fat one is just one kind

true

it's just a meme

fat n happy

y but i kinda find it amusing

the belly is supposed to be where your center of chi is or something to that effect

metaphors for prosperity

measures of potential

worshipping someone who appears imperfect

your core

@profagonist could be very possibly

buddhism is gay though

@The Enlightened Shepherd no what profagonist said is accurate

I'll say what i say to everyone, read Evola's take on it

it's just another religion

right action

more like

reflection of cultural values more than anything else

RIGHT BRIGADE

Definitelly and decidedly, it's not theism

@diversity_is_racism my gf wont shut up about spending time at the computer

how do you handle it

do you reach back like a pimp and slap a ho

there are forms of buddhism that are more theistic

Buddhism can generally most accuratelly be described as ascetic discipline, and only if you consider the wide folklore practices of Asia can it be categorized also as religion

For example, Mongolian Buddhism, which is in fact an elaborate fusion of folklore, magic, shamanism and some aspects of Vayjrajana Buddhism

sure

describe christianity

writ large

same discrepancy

Primitive Buddhism is more of a discipline than faith

"primitive"
