I didnt know about that thing with Shuko Asahara, what was the praise for? Can you give me links? That’s pretty messed up! It’s not hip-hip-hooray let’s gas the underground, is it? I mean, the Japanese piss me off too sometimes with their tiny schoolgirl porn and their damned siphoning of everything edible out of the ocean, but jeez, that’s a little harsh.

I still think he’s got the BEST giggle, though.

If I sent him a “fuck China” shirt, do you think he’d wear it under his robes? Like, secretly?

Remember, this is the guy who called homosexuality, “sexual misconduct”.

He thinks that abortion is only acceptable if the child would be “retarded”.

He has called for India to expand its nuclear testing program.

He has praised Shuko Asahara, whose cult released nerve gas in Tokyo’s subway.

He accepted millions of dollars and troops from the CIA to be a thorn in China’s side… then ostensibly sacrificed hundreds of monks to make a political statement.

And remember, China’s criticism of him is based on his being a religious leader in a country that thinks that religion is wrong.

Yes, this compilation is one-sided, but it is presented as balance. There are two sides to every story and things are not often as simple as they seem. :)

Oh, and yes, fuck China.
