Think I'll become a monk; what a great life, no worries, free food, don't need to work. People even give you money!

Then why not join?  If you Falang you know you can be a Monk.

Forced to pray for hours and actually go out into the community.

Again, you must be one who has no clue about how religion works in the world/Asia.

Picking on the Monks?

Why not then become a youth Pastor or assistant Pastor at any.church in the US?

A free life with money and life much better then Monks have...... 

I never gave money to Monks and although my ex partner Thai lady did and of course it was my money I saw a few onks young and older one going to Big C and shopping wearing sun glasses and nice sandals so guess where the money goes??? My ex defunt father in law left his family of seven and disappeared to necome a monk and he did come back and died at thefamily home some 30 years gone so Boudha will reward him for being selfish .RIP we burned him with no regrets.

I would be rather distributing free condoms to all the poor bar stool mongers around...   ..it could save some lives ?!
