.......Chinese company wants to build a 10-story-tall statue of the Buddha in the Southern California desert community. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Why ? Give the money to a monastery instead.

Would they allow a cross to be displayed?

If it is on private property, I have no problem with this although the health nazis may try to fat-shame it.

As long as they don’t want to behead or blow people up, I am okay with it.

islamic mosques shouldn’t be allowed in the USA. They should be considered a hate group.

It is likely easier to arrange that in Lancaster, California than it is to arrange it in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

That’s probably not what Siddharta had in mind. Will tourists come by the millions to rub the statue’s belly for luck?

Buddha is harmless. Why not put up a giant statue of the founder of the world’s most violent religion?

Maybe they could install a water slide and swings.

I think this is great. Of course I do not live in or near Lancaster, CA, but there must be enough hajji around that a bunch of them will become outraged and attack the facility. Where they can then be slaughtered by the Children of Buddha. A win.

Buddhists are the most tolerant people I know.
About 15 years ago, a local Catholic church burned to the ground. The priest went around to the various other churches in the area pleading for a temporary place to hold services until his church could be rebuilt. He was turned down by every other RC church in the ares, by the Methodists, Presbyterians, Baptists and even several Synagogues and a few VFW Halls. He never contacted the Buddhists in the area, who contacted him independently and volunteered their temple on Sunday mornings for over a year.
This is the Buddhist Temple my wife attends.
