Avoid creating big bomb out of monk’s case

[snoop1130]

 

The Luangpoo Saeng controversy contains two dangerous substances that shall never be mixed. The first one is monks not doing their jobs properly while the second is reporters gravely mistaking their roles.

 

Various factors are combined to blur what should have been a clear-cut boundary between the two issues. Protectors of Buddhist monks tend to overlook improper circumstances that had been taking place at the Yasothon sanctuary before the unruly, vociferous, and intimidating visitors literally besieged it. Supporters of aggressive reporters, meanwhile, have appeared to play down the controversial behaviors of the people they back.

Both cases need to be separately pursued _ entirely and unequivocally. Mixing them up will only let the two scourges off the hook and become stronger. A big bomb could then emerge and explode in everyone’s face.

Monks behaving badly.... of course, just look at the history of the Ponzi scheme in Thailand.

Are there some good monks, sure.

But all being dressed the same it's hard to tell which is good or bad.

If Buddha was here today

He would take one look at Thais and there version of Buddhism

Judging from the picture, the old monk definitely needs another hit.  The monk behind is in Happy Land.

I thought the Thai press were not allowed to report the truth?

What did he do? Something with kids? Hiding in plain sight?
