As for why a Buddhist wouldn't yell at someone who won't agree with them....it's because they believe in NOTHING. Benjamin Franklin had better words of wisdom.
Buddhists don't demand that you agree with them.
If you don't listen, you don't listen.
Remember the rich man that asked Jesus what to do to enter the Kingdom of Heaven? Jesus told him, and the man went away to think about it. Jesus didn't yell at him. He didn't say he was going to burn in hell. He said something to the disciples after the man went away, to show the power of riches.
Why do I compare Buddha to Jesus?
They have a lot in common.
Why do you think everything they had in common is stupid?
Buddhism talks about treating one another with respect, and courtesy, and to care about the welfare of others as you would about yourself.
If someone says, "That's just stupid!", and it agrees with what Jesus teaches, aren't they disagreeing with Jesus?
I'm asked not to quote the bible, because I'm not christian. So, I talk about Buddhism, and now I'm told not to talk about Buddhism.
Why is it that you are so afraid to hear?
