I noticed the "Religion of Peace" isn't mentioned. I wonder why?  :whatever:

Why don't they convert to Islam?

Okay, I went to that bonfire.

It seems the bi primitive is having some heavy personal issues, and so it's natural to seek answers.

I am however intrigued by this primitive notion that religion without God can do something for one.

What is it about the primitives, who find it so difficult to acknowledge God?

Works for Bhuddists doesn't it?

Buddhists believe in GOD.

Actually they don't. The believe in an enlightened state and a collective conscience but not in a omnipotent god. I they are pantheistic and see the universe as a god of sorts. In the Buddist worldview, once one acheives the highest state of enlightenment they are removed form the cycle of reincarnation and become nothing.
