A Pagan is someone who believes in several gods. Tibetean Buddhists believe that everything that exists is a part of the same Divine Energy - a.k.a God.

Funk,

Save your electronic ink. I believe even Einstein would agree that you need a least a tiny bit of awarness to work with for a start.

This administration loves China because it emulates the desired government they would like to establish here in the US. Give this mind set, two to four generations and it will happen

We give them our decomissioned naval stations here in the states, they currently produce the footwear our military is issued, not to mention 9 out of 10 things you pick up and turn over - reads " Made in China"!

I really don't think the fact that just because Tibeteans are Buddhists (The only religion never to have went to war over their religion) we shouldn't step in. There is not a more peaceful man on this earth than the Dalai Lama. Nor is there a more peaceful nation than Tibet.

Eagler, that's a little paranoid.

The average American doesn't understand Eastern religions well enough to support a military action you describe above but put the Pope in place of the Dalai Lama ...

I hope so, time will tell... I haven't seen an administration so in bed with the Red Chinese as this one. I am truly amazed they get away with it.

Since one party running for the office of the Presidency has accepted money from the Chinese shouldn't that raise some questions? What do the Chinese hope to gain? Why are the Chinese interested that Gore wins? What would e the obligation in return for the campaign funds?

Would the Chinese accept money from the US to fund an oposition leader in China? I don't think so.
