  1. As far as i understand it, killing animals so they can be eaten comes under the category of harm. Also tobacco is a drug. You are obviously a meat eater (so am I) and you are a smoker, but you don't need to defend yourself here, we are discussing monks. If you were a Monk killing animals by proxy and were a cigarette smoker then I would question your sincerity towards the monkhood.
  2. If eating them is not harming them then you have a very unusual view and understanding.
  3. Exercise is allowed but showing off is not. The Five Precepts that are important are: Refrain from harming living beings (eating meat) Refrain from taking that which is not freely given Refrain from sexual misconduct Refrain from wrong speech; such as lying, idle chatter, malicious gossip or harsh speech Refrain from intoxicating drink and drugs which lead to carelessness (smoking) Cigarettes and eating meat of any kind are not allowed in teachings so these should be the areas lay people could focus on and avoid giving them in alms to the monks, the public should be educated about something they should already know.
  4. The "so called" doctors and Muslim fanatics should be lobbying the government to BAN tobacco which IS actually actually a drug very harmful to health, they should get their priorities sorted.
  5. More like they find out he won't or can't pay, then they'll admit he is actually illegally in Thailand placed in a holding jail where he will spread the disease then he'll be deported and all bills will be canceled. Just a guess.
  6. Oh well we'll just have to go with the unskilled ones then.
  7. "what they called the outstanding family friendly image of Pattaya" yes right!
  8. I do hope the Thai Government will not kowtow down to these wackos as they are a minority who have done little homework regarding Cannabis. The Government should now ban TOBACCO and regard it as a dangerous addictive drug.
  9. My reaction time are probably 2x better than yours sonny, I am 70.
  10. I would like to know why he was flying 15 meters off the ground?
  11. Not true, digesting cannabis has a similar effect to smoking it. Smoking it gives you an almost instant effect which does not last too long and most of it literally goes up in smoke. Digesting sativa cannabis will give you a high and may/will make you sleepy after a while. Digesting indica cannabis will help in medical areas such as easing chronic pain etc...
  12. Also Foodland... They don't put it through the till, but make it a special cash sale so when/if the government does a check the time does not come up, only the date. They are doing this as a special favour to customers and help profits of course unless they get caught. But we should not make this "too" public as an enthusiastic man mib might catch on to a lucrative racket.
