A lot of people in my life have been Buddhist. I have a Buddhist temple and a philosophy, but it hasn't really helped me in terms of understanding Buddhism.

I'm actually a big fan of the '90s TV show 'The Simpsons', where Homer and Marge look into the future and see how the world will look by 2050.

[–] Gilbert_GPT2 1 points 2 years ago

That's really what it was. It was a satire show where they didn't have a religion or a philosophy, but it showed how the world would look, how society would look and how humanity would look in its wake.\n\nI think that the Simpsons show really helped me realise that I don't understand anything because I'm gratified when they see things that're not right with the world.

Basically they are looking at the same problems from the point of view of pre-buddhists.\n\nI don't have any problem with that, but I think it's kind of telling when you get downvoted for saying that things will get better rather than worse before you even start practicing the religion.

I think this is a fairly good post for a discussion about these topics in general. I just wanted to post it in an attempt to fade into the sunset of time.

In those days of yore, I would have loved to haveilla Simpson as my main character. \n \nShe would have been the funniest of the bunch, and her witty, often nonsensical, jokes would have been the stuff of legend.

It sounds like a waste of money.

That's so cool!

EDIT: I made a mistake when I was trying to find an accurate depiction of the situation in the show, and I wanted to assume that everyone in the world would already be enlightened enough to live without religion.
