But seriously, we all know that the super powers benefits from our unrest and strife. Because they manufactured most or all of this arsenal and, through the black market sell it out and at exorbitant price.
The Kenyans have done a great deal of service by collecting all unregistered guns. That will surely reduce the rate of criminal activity there.

Poems For Review › Re: ABEENI (10 Years Of Solitude) by Elkay3: 11:17pm On Oct 03, 2016
Detayo7:
*ÀBÈNÍ*
( 10 years of solitude)
Àbèní,today is that day
Streams ceased to flow,
Green leaves turned brown
And birds stopped to sing
Àbèní, today I lie
Not on soft wooly beds
But on sharp rocky stones
In remembrance of that day
That day was ten years ago
Under the dongoyaro tree
Where we sat on dead brown leaves
As the sun kissed our faces
That day you broke our oath
For you were betrothed to Àrèmú
Àrèmú, my childhood friend
Who I trusted more than myself
Àbèní, this ten years of solitude
Are like mist that veils distant hills
For my streams of love have ceased to flow
Green leaves in my heart have lost colour
And the birds that sing of love sing no more
Àbèní, I Olusegun , Omo bábà olóde( the son of the hunter) long for your return
#O.A.O
Sweet poem.
Won't you guys teach us/me how to go about with poetry?

But, I'm not good at arguing. I'm neither an atheist nor a Buddhist. All this quotation and counter quotation isn't what I hope for, my mind reflect on the hundreds of lives lost in the single acts of nuclear war by a super power.
Christianity Etc › Re: THE Greatest Miracle On Earth: Survival Of Tsutomu Yamaguchi by Elkay3: 3:40pm On Oct 03, 2016
Who is an atheist?
One who believe no deity exist.
Isn't there a huge difference with Buddhist?

hopefulLandlord:
Do you need permission to do that?
In as much as I wanted to make exact reference from the book I read (in exact context, ISBN and all), I couldn't locate it.
But lemme forward a similar chat with someone else...
"Buddhism do not have a single or central God, but believe in superior beings who are not central but serve different purposes. They neither have a strong faith in God nor attest to the non-presence of a celestial being.....

Guanyin There are hundreds of gods in the Buddhist pantheon. Many have been borrowed from the Hindu pantheon to serve a particular purpose in Buddhist cosmology. Some have a humanlike appearance. Others look like monsters. Many have multiple arms and heads and hold various objects and display certain body positions and hand gestures that have symbolic meaning. At temples some serve as guardians and protectors at the entrance gates. Images found in temples vary according to sect and the period in which the temple was constructed. Gods, goddesses, and other celestial being tend to play a bigger role in Mahayana Buddhism than Theravada Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism introduced a number of female deities....

Buddhist gods include Avalokitesvara (the eleven-headed God of Mercy), Panchika (god of riches), Harati (goddess) of fertility), Garuda (mythical bird), Yakshas and Yakshhis (male and female spirits associated with fertility), nagas (mythical serpent gods), Kinaras, or gandharvas (celestial musicians), Guanyin (Buddhist-Taoist goddess of Mercy), asparas (angels) dharmpalas (demonlike creatures that stomp on human bodies). Some have been adapted from the Hindu pantheon. Some have been taken outright from the Hindu pantheon.....

As is true with Hindu gods many Buddhist gods have different manifestations. Avalokitesvara appears in 33 different manifestations. One reason for this is that locals were absorbed into the Buddhist pantheon by making them manifestations of existing Buddhist gods....

While Buddha himself did not claim divine, no did he deny.....

The Buddhist pantheon of gods is derived mainly from Hinduism, Indian folk religions, and local religions where Buddhism took root. In many cases characteristics of gods from different faiths are merged into a single god. A Buddhist god, for example, may have been derived from Hindu god and given characteristics of a local spirit. Moreover, the gods are intended to show the many sides of enlightenment: it has wrathful, vengeful sides as well as its peaceful and beneficent side...."

Lennycool:
Read carefully

1.) Who Was the Buddha?
Siddhartha Gotama was born into a royal family in Lumbini, now located in Nepal, in 563 BC. At 29, he realised that wealth and luxury did not guarantee happiness, so he explored the different teachings religions and philosophies of the day, to find the key to human happiness. After six years of study and meditation he finally found 'the middle path' and was enlightened. After enlightenment, the Buddha spent the rest of his life teaching the principles of Buddhism — called the Dhamma, or Truth — until his death at the age of 80.

2.)Was the Buddha a God?
He was not, nor did he claim to be. He was a man who taught a path to enlightenment from his own experience.

3.)•Do Buddhists Worship Idols?
Buddhists sometimes pay respect to images of the Buddha, not in worship, nor to ask for favours. A statue of the Buddha with hands rested gently in its lap and a compassionate smile reminds us to strive to develop peace and love within ourselves. Bowing to the statue is an expression of gratitude for the teaching.
