I don’t know what to make of this but he’s a spiritual leader on the wrong side of politics. Something to monitor. We really need a Babylon the Great Has Fallen Thread.

Just a reminder about our Forum Policy:

2) Handling Disagreement: It can be very productive to discuss areas of disagreement, as long as this is done in a "spirit of mildness," avoiding mockery or belittlement. (Galatians 6:1) Keep in mind that this is a forum for discussion, and not a place for heated debate. Express yourself with love, and do not "pour fuel on the fire", as it were. While expressing disagreement, your goal should be to keep the conversation calm and cool, so "before the quarrel breaks out, take your leave.” (Proverbs 17:14) If you are seriously concerned about someone's motives in posting, please contact a Manager or Team Member privately, and do not assault another user publicly within the topic.

Merely meaning The Dali Lama and Beijing are not on the same side. Most religious leaders do try and stay clear of those in power - except to befriend them ...

 

But, I think the Dali Lama has been on the bad side of China for decades now.

 

Anyway - one day governments will be against, or on the other side of, ALL religions. That will be a REALLY interesting time, eh.

I'm sorry brother. All I'm merely doing is posting something I felt was related to religion being toppled by governments. No different than the UN and the Pope currently. That's all. I used English that I guess not everyone understands and I apologize but this kind of response is commonplace here on this forum. Sorry again.
