>>1053194 >The very first things that Gautama's students did after his death was to disobey his teachings, so anything Buddhists "teach" is objectively wrong from the very start. Said disobedience is related to how Gautama thaught them to never, EVER, split the teachings or create contradictory opinions/interpretations, and instead, teach everything exactly as he had taught them. Those students, as soon as Gautama died, immediately split into 2 schools of (so called) "Budhism", with different and conflicting interpretations of Gautama's teachings. exactly the thing that he explicitly told them NOT to do. Didn't the same thing happen to Christianity? Such as the contention between the Disciples and Paul? Or even how one of the disciples fell victim of the Gnostic heresy? Or even the diverging beliefs on the teachings of Christ between the Catholics and Orthodox denominations recorded as early as 107 A.D.?

>>1053198 The religion doesn't actually matter, all that matters is you vibe with your neighbors and aren't excessively exploited. You can reason most morals yourself as long as you don't believe you're just a cluster of atoms and your reasoning abilities aren't reduced to chemical and electrical impulses rather than higher purposes. The cathars were heretical to catholics but nobody bothered them for their piety until the church removed some towns from the map.

I guess all the people with brain cells are spending time with their families right now.

>>1053201 >the entire source of the discussion doesn't matter! >just "be nice" as defined by postmodernist neoliberal society! No, anon. >>1053244 All of my family is dead. You're all my family now.

>>1053244 I'm spending time playing videogames. I have little enough family left alive and on good terms one person such that the holidays don't eat much of my time.

>>1053274 You're a couple days late.

>>1053108 At this point all the major religions, including athiesm, look like scams. Sign me up for whatever Otzi believed in.

>>1053320 Most likely, he worshiped thick thighs.

>>1053328 Fuck it, good enough. Thick thighs probably won't cut your foreskin off, send you to die in the middle east or ban pokemon.

>>1053299 Make it Mondays

>>1053222 >minus those 2 jewish lies don't forget about dispensationalim

>>1053332 Tell that to 5Max next time when you see him on stream.

>>1053320 > including athiesm Why not just be agnostic atheist instead of the anti-religious gnostic atheist?

>>1053184 Gondola's

>>1053184 Christmas is almost here, so it would be a great time for one last Christmas themed thread. Maybe Christmas Cake Edition, featuring vidya ladies over the age of 25 in Christmas attire? Or just a comfy white Christmas one with snow? >>1053407 Christmas themed Gondola

>>1053184 >>1053441 Christmas is SERIOUS BZNIZ edition

Kinda interesting how Crunchyroll is kinda imploding due to Sony fucking things up, also interesting is how Sony is anti-anime despite the medium making them a shitload of money. Really makes you wonder how these people get into the industry despite hating the products they work on. https://archive.ph/VOAFa https://archive.ph/c1xqq

>>1053473 Because it's not about the money it's about pushing the ideology

>>1053473 >Really makes you wonder how these people get into the industry despite hating the products they work on. The same reason Pajeets conquered programming sectors: execs (including Jap ones) will always hire the cheapest labor possible and even turn a blind eye to relevant skillset if you can (half) convincingly fake the ability to to a job. Once they worm their way in, they infest gatekeeper positions like Human Resources and start only hiring their own, then they orchestrate a coup to oust the existing still-ignorant leadership through sheer numbers.

>>1053473 >also interesting is how Sony is anti-anime despite the medium making them a shitload of money. Really makes you wonder how these people get into the industry despite hating the products they work on. I've always found it to be nothing but a spiteful mindset. That the universe had the "gull" to not see how important and smart they are, so they're intent on burning everything down in order to make a name for themselves so that they can "then" become hirable because they have "experience".

>>1053483 gall

>>1053484 Is this another "Who(m)" and "Effect/Affect" situation?

>>1053480 We need to be more vehement in getting people to understand this. It's literally the only thing that matters. When Newsweek went bankrupt after the 2008 collapse, it sold to the LOWEST bidder. For one dollar. Because he was the only jew who bid. They don't give a shit about money.

>>1053485 Not really, unless you mean the universe deceived them. Gull like gullible or gall like gall bladder.
