VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Matt Westwood|DATE|1369478748|CONTENT|My take on it:

&quot;I saw the full moon the other day. It reminded me of Buddha, all fat and round. So what&#039;s that got to do with the state of the world, you ask?

&quot;Buddhists aren&#039;t all pure and holy, they&#039;re just as bad as all the other believers in woo. Look what&#039;s happening in Burma. But the Buddha insisted that he advocated being completely non-political. Go figger.

&quot;Then again, it&#039;s just an instance of how it all goes round in circles. (If I were a follower of one of those much-renowned Abrahamic religions, I&#039;d likely be quoting from the Book of Ecclesiastes by now, but I&#039;m a Buddhist, so I won&#039;t.)

&quot;So, why do people suffer? It&#039;s all in the mind. Don&#039;t be a hater, you&#039;ll just be one of the haters. Go on, be nice to each other, I dare you to try. Remember: Buddha&#039;s like the full moon.&quot;

(Sorry, but I have a soft spot for Buddhism. It *can&#039;t* be *all* bad, Lisa Simpson&#039;s a Buddhist.|EMAIL|prime.mover@proofwiki.org|IP-ADDRESS|2.120.170.219|MODERATIONFLAG|
