Everyone worships something. You can worship deity, the State, or yourself.
Those working tirelessly to shut down contrary thoughts and opinions and playing semantics games are doing so with a religious fervor and to redefine social norms to their own worldview.
- max76 8y ago> Everyone worships something. I don’t think someone following the tenets of Buddhism would worship anything. Correct if me I’m wrong.
- jerf 8y agoIt depends on your definition of "worship". It's not particularly well defined.
- muraiki 8y agoYeah, for particular sects of Buddhism, such as Pure Land, one can observe practices that are more akin what we would call worship.
- jerf 8y agoHeh, yeah, it depends on your definition of "Buddhism", too. It's probably somewhat better defined than "worship" in some sense, but still a broad target. Between the two fuzzy words you can craft significant overlap or make then virtual opposites.
