bobo what the hell is an agnostic atheists?...........
Buddhism is a philosophy, not a religion.
We are taught to believe what we can see, feel, touch, prove.
Belief in an afterlife or not is not a requirement of Buddhism.
We believe, generally, that this is not the end and the we must use this life as preparation for whatever comes next
We believe that if you think you know what is next you are wrong.
Like the caterpillar can have no concept of what it is to be a butterfly we (humans) in our current state are incapable of understanding whatever is next.
Perhaps studying the philosophy might help your understanding.
Not Buddhists."Buddhism is a philosophy, not a religion."
Many people would disagree with you.
Not Buddhists.
Did you know there are Christian, Muslim, and Jewish Buddhists?
No, you didn't.
Perhaps speaking from ignorance isn't wise.

You have to explain that to those who were with me and experienced the same thing.Your experiences are not proof to anyone but you.
See anything about "God" in there?Just pointing out that there are plenty of people who would tell you, Buddhism is a religion. Sorry if that is upsetting to you.
Buddhism
Buddhism is one of the world’s largest religions and originated 2,500 years ago in India. Buddhists believe that the human life is one of suffering, and that meditation, spiritual and physical labor, and good behavior are the ways to achieve enlightenment, or nirvana.

Not religion.
"Buddha rejected the idea of god and ritualistic practices like idol worship. ..."
I can understand your reluctance to accept a philosophy that doesn't incorporate mysticism but Buddhism is not about worship, it is about behavior.
Yes, many Buddhists believe in "God" or "gods" but these beliefs are incorporated from local customs and will vary from region to region and even person to person and are not central to the philosophy.
Within Buddhism there is no requirement to believe...ANYTHING
And without unquestioning belief, there is no religion.
And those who do aren't really familiar with the practice.I didn't say anything about a "god".
I'm simply educating you to the fact that many people view "Buddhism" as being a religion.
"Religion is a fundamental set of beliefs and practices generally agreed upon by a group of people. These set of beliefs concern the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, and involve devotional and ritual observances. They also often contain a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs."
I'm not sure why you are so defensive about this. I didn't make the rules.
It's the Governator!
NOT the Hollyweird Jackass you voted for for President.
I remember when you people wanted to change the Constitution so he could be president.
Not Buddhists.

I don't remember that, I was like 16

When the GOP wanted a foreign-born president
A few years ago, a GOP senator proposed a measure to allow foreigners to run for president. How times have changed
As an agnostic, I believe he's likely correct. No one knows for sure however, and IMO it's wrong to make these kind of comments.

How A.S. can say he knows nothing happens when we die?
Did he died and returned to tell us how it is?
What a fool!
If you're agnostic, you would say, "He could be correct, he could be wrong".As an agnostic, I believe he's likely correct. No one knows for sure however, and IMO it's wrong to make these kind of comments.
