Why was my answer banned?

[RATTER15]

I just said my god was "a little fat Buddha" jokingly as I am an atheist.

Was that seriously offensive to somebody? if so they really need to get a life!!

and what if I did consider this to be my God, I think banning it is offensive in itself!!!

So is it so wrong to be a Buddhist!!

Its pathetic!!!

I wonder how long this answer will stay on here, before some narrow minded little jerk bans it!!

I banned it because i am little and I was offended by your use of the word ...;o)


I personally am not offended by people who believe, but I equally couldn't care less if someone is offended because I don't.

I think if more people concentrated on fixing the problems in their own lives, and stopped trying to control everyone elses, things would be much happier...

Just for the record, as to Crete's point, i read the forums on ebay sometimes and it's the same there.people go round pressing the report button for fun and watch with glee as people complain about it.The eds really need to be a bit more vigilant I guess

[curlyfilm]

as some one who has an interest in buddhism, i can see no offence, though i never read the banned post

i think these words may help, those who banned the question

The whole purpose of religion
is to facilitate love and compassion, patience,
tolerance, humility, forgiveness.

Oh dear RATTER..when I read your ''I have a little fat buddha'' comment I thought you were meaning a little baby...LOL.

Well, they do look like little fat buddhas don't they :o

[RATTER15]

lol pippa, no I don't have any little fat babies, my youngest baby is 18 and over 6ft tall ;-)

Our Buddha is really carakeels, but he is a delightful little fat chap, always looking happy and a delight to have in the room.
