That would be so small minded!
This was a quote from a picture from a sg forum that was talking about a recent poster that a NUS christian club put up saying something about buddhism in thailand.
In actual words of the poster,
"thailand is a place of little true joy"
and they went on to imply that it's because buddhism, instead of christianity, is a part of the Thai national identity.
personally to me, it seemed like a load of rubbish. first of all, i don't really fancy the idea of promoting one's own religion. too forthcoming. second, they're attacking other religions. though complaints have been made and the poster being taken down, it was still rather short-sighted and inconsiderate for them to write such words out. is it me, or do some christians think that there is really a best religion around?
all these stuffs are sensitive issues which i myself find it touchy to talk about sometimes with my christian friends. especially when i just started to know them.
but i'm glad i'm a buddhism, or taoist. i'm not confused, i'm just not sure. haha... but for whichever i believe in, i still don't like the idea of going to places and promoting a certain religion. i'm sure they're fine by the way they are.
