What do Buddhist believe in and what do they want for themselves?

Someone said just now: "Everyone deserves to believe in what they want to believe in"?

  • Surely "deserve" is the wrong word here. What if someone believes he has the right to kill you? Does he deserve to believe that too? The point is that while it may be legal for people to hold any opinions, to characterize holding vile and outright dangerous views as an issue of the holders deserving to hold them is surely wrong.

People are like that commonly. That's why there is so much resentment against pushy religious people, atheists included. So whether people want those kinds of people around or not; they are here regardless. What are they going to do about it if I still hold to my beliefs is a good question to ask, but so far they haven't done anything but report my answers at times.

What about someone who believes that you don't deserve to believe that people don't deserve to believe what you want to believe?

What about someone who believes that you don't deserve to believe that people don't deserve to believe what you want to believe?

If someone believed that you were not entitled to your belief, that would really have no effect on you, would it? Not unless that person used force to inhibit your actions in conformity with that belief. Whomever said everyone deserves to believe in that which desire to believe in probably meant that his subjective belief was that this entitlement exists.

Kind of a paradox, but yes.

They sure can but I can also believe that they are wrong. Beliefs are fun that way.

definitely! each of us has d freedom of choice, to choose wat we wnt 2 believe in
