China Regulates Buddhist Reincarnation http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20227400/site/newsweek/


In an effort to discredit the future Dalai Lama, the Chinese government has decided no one can reincarnate without government approval. This means when the current DL dies and supposedly reincarnates as another DL, the Chinese gov't can say, "Whoa, there fella. How do we know you're the new DL? Did you get approval to reincarnate?"

Then the Chinese gov't can discredit the newly reincarnated DL and instead appoint their own person to be the new DL. What will Buddhists do if 2 people claim to be the new DL? Guess it's a good thing I follow a God who was resurrected only once.



Moose are to blame for Global Warming


Scientists in Norway have discovered one moose can produce 2,100 kilos of methane each year, which is the equivalent of the CO2 output during a 8,077-mile roadtrip. So should we kill the moose to save the trees?

I didn't know you had a blog! Wish I'd known sooner. I've begun "lurking" around other company blogs and found yours through a comment on Stepchilds. Thanks for sharing...

Deanna - I've been lurking, too, and loving all the updates you're posting about the kids starting school. I think of you and the family often ...

I'll miss seeing you at SheGather, but I hope you have fun!
