Thailand has been spraying and neutering stray cats and dogs- common practices in other countries. However, some Buddhists/monks in Thailand believe it’s a sin to do that to the animals. They think birth controls and abortions are wrong. Not to mention tons of other non sense stufff that they believe in. Buddhists in Thailand are one of the most back warded people on earth- worse than Christians in my opinion. I am not a fan of Christinity, but at least there is some love in it. Buddism is all about karma, reincarnation, suffering etc. Buddism is definitely not better than other religions.

Buddism is my background. A lot of posts here are about Christinity and I compared it to the religion of my background. It’s very interesting that most atheists that I’ve met think that Buddism is the most “reasonable” religion. That’s not true at all. People are surprise when I mention “hell” in Buddism. They said they didn’t know “hell” existed in Buddism. I want to let everyone knows that Buddism is no better than other religions. There are a lot of BS non sense stories/beliefs in Buddism. As for political issues in Thailand, the country/culture is full of hypocrites. It’s a dictatorship country hiding under fake democracy. Most people believe that the royal family is God. The big blue stripe in the middle of Thai’s flag represents the king and the smaller red and white stripes represent land/people and religion (red=land/people) (White=religion). There is a special language when talking to the royal family in Thailand. When people talk to the King, they address themselves as a tiniest of the dirt of the King’s Feet (people are Slave and worthless and the King is the highest God) Many people have this certain attitudes and it’s very hard for westerners to understand.

There is crazy and stupid in every group, even buddhists aren't immune.

Allowing feral cats & dogs is a pox on the environment.

Those here also aren't all lily white pure souls as they'd have you believe either.
Was briefly acquainted with one who vented she'd been kicked out of a temple. How does that happen?! ? Same chick that had designs on my late husband turns out. BATSHIT!
I'm sure her diet of kale & tofu really helped her cognitive abilities! ??

I'm not sure where to start, or where you are getting your info. I won't defend any religion but my times in and knowledge of Thailand shows them to be a more progressive Asian nation than most. Currently, for most of the last decade they have had political troubles. They've been praised by the UN for curtailing AIDS, mostly through checks and condoms. You want to visit a backward anti abortion/illegal birth control go to Catholic Philippines. The monks don't run the country and although much respected, the country is by far a secular nation. They are a very tolerant people, though if pushed too much, they will crack heads with a vengeance which occurred more than 10 years ago in the Southern tip where a Muslim population lives when the locals didn't stop a rise in unrest, thus the army kicked in everybody's doors.
