Dear Yamizi ,
I am not siding either one of your in the arguments , but I hope you take a look at what Master Chin Kung have taught ..as long as World Amitabha Buddhist Society never replace Amitabha with Jesus Christ Statue, He is still a respectable representative of Buddha
Every Master of Buddhism have to be encompassing in their speech.If He is invited to the Catholic Church .Would He be nice if He say in the speech , Creator God doesnt exist ?Then its against the Harmonious nature of Buddhism with other religion.
If you are not happy with MCK teaching , you should keep it to yourself .This is Wisdom Bliss where people come here to discuss and encourage greater communication among Buddhist ,be it Theravada , Mahayana or Vajrayana School followers .We dont want to scare people away with such dissonant in the forum
I believe your purpose is to discuss, so why strained your words to express that ego ?
I read both Shin Buddhism and Chinese Mahayana
Chinese always say "Everything prosper if the house [Buddhist community] is in harmony "
I hope you really think through it .
ya ,we may disagree with MCK , but thats only our POV .As long as the Master of Buddhism [MCK] never confused Buddhism with Christianity ,He does prove his point
Every monk have to take the re-tonsure every month ,so it pretty self-defeating if one slack and dare to repeat "I vow to save all sentient beings ,I vow to attain Buddhahood .
