    There’s a difference between faith and organized religion. I have nothing against the former, but the latter brings only trouble

      I’m not saying you’re wrong, but that there are exceptions to every rule.

      Buddhism is one of the world’s largest religions and originated 2,500 years ago in India. Buddhists believe in reincarnation of the soul, and that, by following the teachings of Buddha, or dharma, people can reach an enlightened state called nirvana and stop the cycle of reincarnation.

        Stupid thing to downvote, it’s so short if any of you 11 downvoters are here you can probably get a quick dunk in without typing more than 100 characters

        “Appeal to age = irrelevant” would be one example (I made this up, not stating it for debate)

          That entire link is irrelevant, so downvote is applicable. No point engaging in an argument that is fallacious to begin with.
