Hello Dalai, goodbye reincarnation (China outlaws reincarnation)
Worldnetdaily ^ | 08/23/2007 | Joyanna Adams

China has just announced that reincarnation has now been outlawed, mainly to get rid of the habit of those pesky Dalai Lamas popping up every 70 years or so just to give them trouble. It should also take care of all the people walking around China claiming to be reincarnations of Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Napoleon or Chairman Mao's second cousin.

As we all know from "South Park," the real Dalai Lama escaped from his home in Tibet some time ago, and unless he really is a god, he is getting ready for his reincarnation.

You can't blame the Chinese for not wanting to have to deal with another brutal public annihilation of an entire country. Killing a whole nation of Buddhists might have been easy once, but now they have more important things to do – like persecuting Christians. There are just so many persecutions one can do in a decade, so it's best just to write a law and stop the whole mess.

After all, when the Chinese went into Tibet to take over, they obviously did not expect the Dalai Lama to be like all the other leaders on the earth, running away from harm's way while his people were being slaughter and murdered. No, he was on a royal Lama donkey with his protective priests, riding over mountains into Richard Gere-land, to live another day.

That escape was not exactly a good PR moment for the Chinese.

There is the question that enters ones mind about reincarnation; if the Dalia Lama really believes in reincarnation as he says he does, why didn't he just stick around Tibet and face death with the rest of his people? His soul would have instantly found another vessel to crawl into, probably in the very next village.

China has more problems than anyone knows (although they are starting to find their way into the outside world).

Is it humor?

Yes. It's debatable whether it really IS humorous, but apparently that was the intent. Have a nice day! :o)

“China has just announced that reincarnation has now been outlawed...”

Shouldn’t be surprising; China has long since outlawed freedom and democracy, God and religion - it was only a matter of time before they got around to reincarnation. This sort of thing begins when Marxists and other collectivists outlaw reality and human nature. Liberals take note.

Well considering that he’s now married to Miss Ross, I’d say Gere landed quite solidly on his feet.

You’re hilarious! But have you considered that it may not be the red hair as much as the freckles that makes him cheap? ;o)

It's the hair. My mother-in-law was a super cheapy until she dyed her red hair jet black. Now she's like the Dalai Lama or something. So very un-cheap.

Actually I would like to apologize. Sluring you with the fool comment was out of line and I am sorry.

The ever popular Dalai Lama has his own place in New York, thanks to Richard Gere

Does the place have really neat gerbil habitats?
