Buddhists and Janists - in my experience - never act as the overzealous Christians do. I've came across people like this on campus numerous times and every single one of them is bonkers for Christ, so much so that it begins to encroach on other people's personal freedom and space. A technical or state institution is no place for Christ.

That's a stunning generalization. How many Buddhists and Jainists have you really met? Lots of them would refute your use of recreational drugs with the same zeal that a "bonkers for Christ" Christian would.
As I said, I speak from only my experience. I've studied multiple Buddhist and Hindu texts, I've dealt with the Janists and Hindus attempting to give out "free" books, but only for "donations" (Ya know, the ones who troll Phish lots and "Hippie" Music Festivals). I've even been duped into throwing out $5 for a book entitled "Self-Realization", what was I thinking - I was probably high. But never have I heard Janists or Hindus or Buddhists yelling some rant about how "we're all going to burn in hell for our sins". These are strictly fear tactics.
Even if *insert eastern religious group here* were to oppose my recreational drug use, I would not be cast aside as a "sinner", I would not be giving up on and thrown into the depths of hell.
If anything, groups evangelizing Eastern Philosophy and Religion are taking advantage of the hippie and drug counter-cultures and their quest for - you guessed it - Self-Realization. Shit, the Hippies of the 60's acted as one of the main vehicles promoting the Westernization of Eastern Philosophy and Religion. Eastern Philosophy, as it is known to Western Culture, and recreational drug use go hand and hand.

you must have some pretty limited experiences, hindu, buddhists, all religious groups have their share, the extremists even resort to terrorism and murder and these arent isolated cases

I understand that there are extremists on every side of every world view - I only speak of and evaluate my experiences first hand with followers of *whatever* religious sect. Despite the fact that I've never first hand witnessed a Christian, Hindu, Janist, or Buddhist murder anyone for their cause, IMO, in my history, and quite possibly the world's, Christians are the most violent and extreme in the face of opposition.
I'm not willing to go into a "terrorism" conversation Myths and Conspiracies man.
