What is inaccurate with those communities who bring offerings to a sculpture?

[buddhist]

No, it's all about organizing it.

You can never understand it, the unity, the modesty that all people from all over the world feel
when they're wearing the same uniform, from the west and from the east, black and white,
men and women, all are walking together and directing their faces to the only one God.

I can say the same thing about my practice.

"You can never understand it, the unity, the equanimity and peace that all people from all over the world feel when they're part of the blessed Sangha, from the west and from the east, red and yellow, monastics and laity, men and women, all walking together and directing their hearts and minds to the one and only Triple Gem, infinitely higher than any mere godling."

As is the case for anybody who makes threads that are critical of anyone or any concept they don't understand, and as a consequence disagree with, and say so with disrespectful condescending tones. The fact of the matter is there are around 7 billion people on this planet, and until we start respecting and not criticizing other points of view, the wars and the hatred will continue.

Having been on pilgrimage to some of Hinduism's greatest temples, having dropped everything worldly for 2 or 3 weeks, I feel I do understand the spirit of pilgrimage. There is something bonding with like minded individuals about it.

I have no problem for what the others believe, but thinking that Kaaba is an Idol
that Muslims worship is a wrong idea and hence i was explaining it.

Yes it's bad, but who'll stay.

When and where did I say that there's a problem with it?

The purpose of the Kaaba for Muslims is served likewise by other objects in other religions.

I don't understand, 'but who'll stay.'

@JayaBholenath What is wrong with those people who make up lies just to make people laugh?

Kaaba doesn't represent God, it's a place of worshiping, would you please
explain what is the similarities between Kaaba as a place and Buddha for
example as a sacred man, why Muslims don't make an idol for the prophet
and make it a holy one or making an idol for Kaaba to be sacred as well.

Nothing whatsoever. What do you think?

I mean who won't die and who'll stay forever, everyday people die for different reasons
and this is what life is.

A better comparison would be the Kaaba (a sacred nexus for worship for Muslims) and a Buddha statue (a sacred nexus for many Buddhists).

Are you saying that it was a great thing that people got trampled on haaj, because they were doing something religious?

But do Muslims produce and sell Kaaba as an idol for that purpose compared to Buddha.

Sarcasm is a subtle form of bullying.

Where did i say that? I said accidents and death is happening all the time, using it
as gloating is disgusting, I never use such attitude, it's an ugly behavior even though
that you pretend to be a good guy, but no, i feel pity towards you.

If I go to check on my dad's sheep for him, and he asks if they're all there, and I say 'No, they've grown opposable thumbs, opened the gate and gone off to make a new life in the big city' am I bullying anybody?
