Tell me why I shouldn't /pol/
Because it is a clueless non-religion for doubting types that are too chicken and don't want the atheist taint. Repent dude.
>>137652230
Why Buddhism? What convinced you to believe in reincarnation?
>>137652618
>reincarnation
It makes more since to me than Christianity, and its teachings are doing better to help me get through what i am going through then Christianity ever did
>>137653284
I see. When will you give up your things?
>>137653577
Like next week, it might take awhile though
>>137653284
What determined someone's status during their first incarnation?
>>137653284
Congrats. I found a copy of the Dhammapada while on a business trip in Asia and found its teachings very useful.
If you are serious, you should actually consider giving up your things and finding a teacher. It would be a good way to spend your time.

>convert to Buddhism
>convert
Lol
>>137652230
You don't need to leave Christianity to become Buddhist.
>>137652230
there's no why shouldnt you
>say nothing to hurt others
This is incompatible to rebuking evils and degeneracy.
>>137656263
All life is suffering.
>>137656453
So what's a little more then, if for reducing evil?
>>137652618
That's not at all what Buddhism teaches. Nirvana is nothingness. You return to nothingness once you bave learned everything you must learn.

What happens when you don't reach nirvana?
>>137658283

>>137658876
He said that's not what buddhism teaches, so I'm curious.
>>137652230
convert to muh dickism
>>137652230
Because Deus Vult, anon. That's why.
>>137652230
why not skip the middleman and just become an atheist?
>>137652230
buddhism isn't a religion, it was a bunch of people trying to rediscover something that people in ancient times before them knew and they were trying to figure it out. One of them named Buddha rediscovered what had been lost.
Other people in history have figured it out as well. Christ being one of them and the most important one as he was the representative of the highest being in the Universe and the one who created things as they are.
>>137652230
Because you're abandoning truth for empty mantras.
Buddhism actually comes from ancient European beliefs and values. It's Indo-European in its roots. In other words Aryan.
Yeah on the surface it seems pretty different from our standard pagansim of Europe, but it's the truth. Dig deep and you shall discover it.
Certainly Buddhism, stemming from the same source as our own culture, is much better than any Abrahamic bullshit.
It's not degenerate in any way. It has some problems though, or at least some forms of Buddhism does, or incorrect interpretations of it... I suggest checking Alan Watts videos, his ideas about it are pretty redpilled.
>>137652230
>buddhism
lmao
literally babby's first "im 13 and my parents are HITLER for making me go to church!!!!" rebellion ''''''religion''''''
>>137653577
That, is one of the incorrect ways of being a Buddhist. Many Buddhists are like that, but they actually shouldn't be if they truly understood Buddhism.

Today is krishna's birthday; it's a good day to convert. He even gave you a gift; the norks BTFO and Trump condemned antifa. Eat something sweet and wish him happy birthday.
LMAO going from worshiping a Jew on a stick to a fat bald gook

I see, and you do understand it?
>>137661466
Nah, not well enough to give you a proper lecture about it. I simply happen to have learnt that there are some fundamental misconceptions and "incorrect" versions of Buddhism being practiced today (even by lots of people people in asia)... Thus I refer you to Alan Watts and Survive The Jive for example.
>>137662452
Is it incorrect, or a different version? Many eastern beliefs evolve when adopted by another culture.
>>137652230
Swallow the ultimate redpill and become Muslim. /pol/ has a hard time with this because "muh shitskins" but Islam truly is the most compatible religion with /pol/'s worldview.
