All the Buddhists, Muslims, and Hindu.. when they have problems in their communities/countries, they screaming for Christian nations to help them, feeding them, giving them shelters, and saving them.

Like this woman as well many of her type of people have done before her.

When they get full comfort, they have never appreciate to the ones who helped/saved them, instead they bow down to the Indian man who preaches to give up all to be homeless so to reach Nirvana (End of sufferings) whose doctrine destroyed the Nations.

They cursing GOD, but they live, eat in GOD' people great nations. How ungrateful these people are.

The last Indian Buddha as well too many Buddhas before this last one were all DEAD. But their teachings lives on. Indian-Nepalese Buddhism was dead and is dying in nations like Burma, Thailand, Cambodia and Srilanka. Buddhism in Japan is about to be dead.

Their doctrines led to weak the nations and fell into poverty.

It is good only to practice in the community but not suppose to be adopted by the Nations.

If the Viet Kings the Nguyen dynasty adopted Buddhism they would have never defeated Khmers, but they a strong Confucian Orthodoxy. They defeated Khmers since 1600's until now.
