Re: For crying out loud...

My parents always taught me never to get involved on a discussion about religion, because no matter how reasoned or sensible your view is it will never be accepted by someone who holds a different viewpoint, so I don't, what I will say, everyman to his own, but keep it to yourself, don;t try to conv...

Does a...

Central parking.

Now they have started charging for those parking over 2 hours.This seems rediculous to me I thought they want people in their store, surely the longer they stay the more their likely to spend. The shop renters are having a hard enough time paying the high rents they charge, witness the amount of clo...

Re: Merit?

Men are able to become monks, women cannot. This means everything in a Theravada Buddhist society. To make up for this inability to become a monk women make merit by giving food and other gifts to the monks as they pass by homes or at the Wat. Women do not expect monks to thank them for these donat...
