I mean, would anyone looking to research Buddhism actually be drawn to Christian Right by this tactic?

Ironically, it was Jesus who fought against such intolerance and blind-dogma in his lifetime.<br /><br />I know enough about Buddhism to know that it shares many of the core values Jesus advocated to his people. Both gave a great deal of wisdom to our world, and we should not let a bunch of over-zealous dickheads twist their message and profound wisdom.<br /><br />The funny thing is that both faiths teach that true faith cannot be bought or sold like that.Malcadonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03111796978336546944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-36958485103159215822010-06-28T13:05:34.479-05:002010-06-28T13:05:34.479-05:00@ze bullette: BRILLIANT!@ze bullette: BRILLIANT!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-1019455628409701242010-06-28T12:08:24.659-05:002010-06-28T12:08:24.659-05:00Malcadon wrote: "Somehow, sticking such a thi...Malcadon wrote: "Somehow, sticking such a thing in the Buddhism section feels like spamming a Sesame Street website with porn adds."<br /><br />Absolutely. What a d1ckish move. Why does 'sharing the good news' have to include interfering with other people's right to read about Buddhism unmolested? And, somehow, a religious pamphlet that tries to fool you into picking it up by looking like money doesn't say much for the faith of the person who placed it there.Stefan Poaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192911890556534923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-27979734352047139042010-06-28T05:52:34.258-05:002010-06-28T05:52:34.258-05:00hail eris, baby!hail eris, baby!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-20984417161799405742010-06-28T04:09:17.793-05:002010-06-28T04:09:17.793-05:00There's nothing much wrong with mixing serif a...There's nothing much wrong with mixing serif and sans-serif if it's done with a sensitive eye for the overall design ... but that awful vertical squashing of the fonts is just unforgivable :(<br /><br />I remember finding one of those phony-dollar pamphlets on a convenience-store parking lot years ago ...<br /><br />user@example.com: Yikes, that is PROFOUNDLY dickish.

That's where I usually see fake money being used, and it's colossally dickish, especially when (at least half the time I've seen it done) they don't leave any actual money, and walk off being self-righteous and smug about how they've given the poor, struggling waiter something worth <i>more</i> than any amount of cash.user@example.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-65361965964662629732010-06-28T00:00:28.773-05:002010-06-28T00:00:28.773-05:00Perhaps they thought that book was an easy mark. :...Perhaps they thought that book was an easy mark. :-)Mark CMG Cloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00160691331267309851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-13466155718445434292010-06-27T21:14:05.469-05:002010-06-27T21:14:05.469-05:00Were I to express here how much I detest those sma...Were I to express here how much I detest those smarmy-assed religious come-ons, you'd need a new monitor.Dr Rotwanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16750632906878388570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-54086519013766542032010-06-27T20:47:37.134-05:002010-06-27T20:47:37.134-05:00Even I think the "Illar" is in poor tast...Even <i>I</i> think the "Illar" is in poor taste...FrDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459281821319914530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-88382793920504264342010-06-27T20:29:29.415-05:002010-06-27T20:29:29.415-05:00That reminds me, I have to get all my Illars chang...That reminds me, I have to get all my Illars changed before I go to Tuared.Intruder_Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08322242036586961094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-60204730094249660952010-06-27T20:16:39.788-05:002010-06-27T20:16:39.788-05:00Shucks, it has a kind of nifty, kooked-out Alt-Uni...Shucks, it has a kind of nifty, kooked-out Alt-Universe feel on the front:<br /><br />Hey!
