a synthesis between Buddhism and MarxismI shudder when I read the word synthesis. It's how the utterly unacceptable is made palatable . . . in anticipation of the next synthesis.

Anti-war movements, huge international aid efforts after Haiti's earthquake this year, and the election of Barack Obama as the first black president in a once deeply racist US are "clear signs of human beings being more mature", he said. The Dolly needs to buy a clue - it's the blacks like MAO-bama and his white liberal devotees that are the racists. I guess truth doesn't matter to a marxist.

“...Still I am a Marxist,” the exiled Tibetan Buddhist leader said ...
“Then still, Dalai Lama, you are a POS...” Hale replied to the exiled Tibetan Buddhist leader. Just lost all sympathy for him and “the plight of his people”, etc., etc., etc.,

"(Marxism has) moral ethics,
Marxism is more materialistic than Capitalism. Its very doctrines dictate that there is NO emotional or spiritual value to anything. The material worth is all that matters. That is why material worth is to be spread. You can't be happy unless things are given to you. The Dalai Lama needs to read more Dogen.

The fact that China is a communist slave state means that capitalism does not exist in China.
Any Rand writes that ...
Capitalism is a social system based on the recognition of individual rights, including property rights, in which all property is privately owned.

You come up with irrational bullshit like this. Yeah but one has to wonder, if he's god (or even a minor deity), why doesn't he have his own socio-economic theories. Why does he need Marx?

"I'm a Marxist" says Dalai Lama "You're an idiot" responds theDentist. "If you are a Marxist, you'll return to the land of Marxism that you fled. If you don't return, then I say you're a damn liar too."
