well yea i guess your right.i misspoke when i said it doesnt cause violence. I dont know martial arts, so im not familiar with the code and what not. My real point actually was about the religious wars. Ive also not heard of any fundamentalist buddhists killing in the name of zen.

an entire movement such as the crusades, or the islamic fundamentalist stuff based on buddhism, hasnt happened to my knowledge.

Think for yourself, I have nothing against average Jews, but these Zionist are destroying our planet(along with others) IMO.

Yes but there is a tendency to blame everything on the jews. The plague that killed millions in Europe was blamed on the Jews. Thousands of Jews were killed by Europeans because they thought the Jews caused the plague. Then you have the Nazis that blamed the poor German economy on the Jews. So yea, if there's a problem the Jews will always be there as a scapegoat.

Ok, did he blame the Jews, or the ZIONIST. The 'tendency' you speak of, is something YOU are making worse by not reading what is written, only was you think was said. Its not a 'blame the Jews' problem,

Is this guy anti-Jewish


Or does he believe, as is written in the bible. That God choose the Jews as 'the chosen people' and cast them into exile.
^{Was God WRONG?}

I don't think Buddhist monks practice fighting for its violence. They are after the personal power... They are fighting an internal struggle which happens to manifest itself in external form. I suppose its not easy for people who don't have a spiritual calling to understand that...

And as for that guy, I have no idea. I heard of them before but they are pretty much  100% conservative and follow the old test. 100%.

One more time.  They believe that the JEWS ARE IN EXILE!  No Jewish Homeland is acceptable, because GOD SAYS SO.

I believe the Torah also speaks of problems assocated with ANY Religious Homeland.  Jewish or Otherwise.  It is too exclusive, and those in the 'homeland' that do not hold the same religous beliefs, are doomed to be second class citizens.

'Hey, weren't the Jews treated as second class citizens for most of recorded history?'

How well do the Irsreali's (Read: ZIONIST, not JEWS) treat the non Jewish citizens of there 'homeland'? 

Rather than writing this Shepartic Jew off as, 'pretty much  100% conservative and follow the old test. 100%' you should give him more credit.  I'm sure his beliefs are a little more in depth.

Someone could label him as a liberal pussy, who is afraid of change, fearful of 'Terrorist', open to appeasement, isolationist, etc.

OR, you can look at the history of Sephardic Jews(wiki).  Realizing, they have always been second class, have a long history of beliefs without many changes (*cough* Catholicism ), and just the general plight of most jews worldwide for, o say 4000 years.

Then perhaps, people will lend this guy a little more credit than 'pretty much  100% conservative and follow the old test. 100%'
