hate crimes against buddhists?

[spiritnoname]

 Depends.

 I'm going to stop talking about this for now though because what I've said almost certainly has fault in it because there is some anger and I notice my view is really narrow because of that. I'll probably take back what I've said over the next couple of days as I try to root out anger distortion.

and...having once exposed these "pseudo-Christians" for what they are, what would be the expected result...?...a humbling...?...humiliation...?...outrage...?...anger...?.. a sense of new awareness...?...fury...?...satori...?...a new found respect for the religious tradition of the person who just bested them...?...or perhaps a renewed resolve to continue on with and nurture their hatred? The results of a line of "correction" such as you suggest are far too unpredictable to pursue with any assurance of a good outcome.

Trekcho I like your reasoning
