Post here, if you don't buy into the Buddha myth

How could they. Would the son of a God weigh 700 lbs. How can a religion who prides themselves on self disipline, have a 700 lb man as their main figure. A 700 lb man has no self disipline.

Saying that the Buddha was a lard arse is like saying that Jesus was a white man.

umm.. because if you weren't a complete idiot you would know that most buddhists dont believe buddha is a god. they believe he is a guy with alot of great principals.

and alot of fried foods to eat. I am a christian, and i don't believe Jesus was a God, I believe he was "a guy with alot of great principals", as you put it. Jesus was the son of god, not god, though some would say he was God in a mans body, but since Jesus prayed on the cross before dying, i doubt he was praying to himself.

But they dont believe buddha was the sone of god or any god like figure.

you lose.

Listen, there are SEVERAL bhuddas or rather, should I say several interpretions of bhuddas. One of happens to be fat.

Bhuddas are not gods, they are those who have acheived the highest 'state' of karma.

NO BUDDHA WAS OVERWEIGHT

And, if you are talking about overweight people being unable to be religious figures or sources of enlightenment, Jason, i.e. Jamie, then don't forget that YOUR Christian brethren used to think that fat women were far superior, due to the fact that they could afford to eat better...

It was called the Rococo movement...

Read a book.

He might have been fat because he had a bad BMR?
