I make threads about religion post in threads about religion, it's a interest of mine on this forum, if you don't want to argue about it or don't want to see my posts I suggest you scamper off to avoid that butthurt of yours.
I do however make a lot more threads about cooking and funny stuff and books then religion.
You just said you get butthurt then accuse me of being butthurt, and that is solely due to you being thin-skinned. I am very interested in religion and study it from different perspectives, going back a few millenium to the present. I want to discuss it but there is nothing to discuss with you and many others because when it comes down to discussion, you actually know very little about religion other than your opinion of it. You end up with people like sweeny saying Buddhists are pagan and people just nod. I study religion because its fascinating to me and I will read anything I can get my hands on that is scholarly and well translated, or has had their translation verified. So, what about religion specifically did you want to discuss? I'm reading a good book on physics, the unification theory, and buddhism, would you like to discuss that?
We could start with the political upheaval in Europe after Martin Luther proclaimed his thesis and if the leaders whom took to Protestantism was really inspired by a new faith or just the thought of getting their hands on the riches of the catholic church.
I do not need to know about the gospell, just what actions they have taken in the world and how it affected history I care little what religions say about themselves it's their actions that count and how it changed humanity and society.
I'm in no way interested in the spirituality or ideas surrounding Buddism because I think it's crock in the same way I do not need to know every gospell or every story in the bible and I don't need to because it's not relevant; I know what happened when Christianity became the states religion in Rome, I'm in no way interested in discussing the meanings of different holy texts because I don't see them as anything but fiction and wholly unholy.
My knowledge of religion is mainly historical I know the basics of every religion, that is more then enough because I'm never going to find myself quoting scripture when I can use history to further my arguments instead.
I could not care less about Sweeny and his lack of education, nor do I care if Buddists are pagans or martians.

I see. You know nothing about Buddhism and its relationship to mathematics but you have a strong opinion on it. We are at an impasse then, because Martin Luther bores the hell out of me. There might be people on this board who are interested in Martin Luther and the intent of his actions who would be interested in discussing it with you, however. I'm much more interested in religions that predate Luther by about a thousand years, give or take a half millenium.

Manegarms thin foreskin is comforted by his many vices afforded by his lifestyle, so no crutch is needed. 
I'm not a trust fund baby. I'm successful for my age ( same age as mane, maybe a year younger) and I like to drink and do drugs once in a while and party. WTF does that have to do with needing a crutch in life? Could it be that.. it's actually fun and we enjoy having fun? Maybe we actually live life the way we want , and not how a book tells to? I do whatever the hell I want, when I want. I adapt and deal with whatever consequences come from it. It's how life should be to me : Be careless,carefree and enjoy every minute of it.
Your argument is invalid. Needing a book to make you feel better about why you're here because you can't accept the fact that we're not that special is not the same as partying and having a great time with awesome people. Life is too short to live it based on how someone or something else thinks you should live.
I offered no argument and you are needlessly tripping all over yourself  You should learn to distinguish a light hearted comment from a argumentive rebuttal which it was clearly not, but since you are stuck on WARRGRARBLE for the past few days, keep the momentum going.

I don't think I have voiced any opinions about Buddhism except that I don't believe in spirituality, what it has to do with mathematics is beyond my meager knowledge.
I find him fascinating, mostly because he's the father of modern antisemitism. I find all men and women that change the world around them with only the strength of their own conviction.. Lincoln is a great example of this, and he did it without being a genocidal dick. 
as I said my interest in religion has more to do with it's practical appliance upon the world, and the results I do not view religion as something spiritual or actually "religious" I see it as a power tool or a ideology like communism.
I love the tales of the Asean religion I grew up with those while the Norse religion does not have any real moral tenets besides bravery, dying in battle and having alcohol as a holy sacrament the stories still speak of honesty and steadfastness as good traits that and a martial nature..

lol.
for the record, manny, ive been studying religion since before you were born.
i was writing papers on the brutality of the christians and the slaughter of the jews at their hands, in school when you crapping your diapers.
ive read books on everything from witchcraft to egyptian mythology. at one point in time, i could read several different hieroglyphics from various cultures around the world.
ive probably forgotten more than you will ever know.
i typically leave you alone in these threads because we are on the same side
you would be wise to do the same.
as far as buddhism and mathematics...
it seems to be some kind of newage hippy crap. lol

islam is more important to mathematics than buddhism.
christianity is more important to suppressing mathematics and learning than anything else.
