See how Buddhist we are.. we get disturbed when an image of Buddha is abused.. But we are not aware of the fact that whole Doctrine had be made "fruitless" by Mahayana (Why? In Mahayana there's no gain from following the Path; only Buddhas can attain Nibana; others has to cultivate Parami, hoping to become Buddhas..)We are only ruining ourselves by getting angry. Why? Anger, hatred is a sin. It is  a sin irrespective of the persons caste, creed, religion; irrespective of the being being a human, animal, devine, pretha, etc... And who will get the returns (vipaka) of what we do? No one else but us...True Buddhist should not get angry of things like this... If we cannot tolerate these abuses.. we should do solid action out of sympath, Metta towards those doing them... (e.g. preparing a petition perhaps highlighting the bad returns they would get... however it's up to them to accept it or not... so it's always good to practice how not to get disturbed by these things... in other words to practice Dhamma. It is only Dhamma which can make us resilient to these things...)If we google a bit we can find thousands of offensive things like this... What will we achieve if we keep on doing this? Nothing, but wasting the time we can used to practice Dhamma... Theruwan saranai!</blockquote>
