Thanks Irfan, but I'm not apologising for anyone. I believe the malicious killing of even one person is wrong. The killing of thousands of people is beyond forgiveness. It is evil.
I am saying that anyone who can carry out such acts has no right to call themselves Buddhist.
I'm sorry Chang Chokaski, but I don't need anybodys' fucking authority to hold an opinion.
Exactly - yours is an opinion - I'm glad that you realize that. I only wish all the other apologists would realize that it is only THEIR opinion.
Who exactly do you think I'm apologising for?
He means that you are an apologist for genocidal Buddhist monks in Myanmar.

Agreed, but they do call themselves that and they carry out the atrocities anyway. That's his point.
I would argue the same for any religion, including Jews, Christians, Muslims and Hindus.
For any religion indeed. Devout Christians dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima ans Nagasaki. How Christian is that?
The people who do these things betray the very belief systems they claim to follow.
