KPFA Buddhist bullshit to raise money

by Carleton Hoffman
KPFA is reaching out to the religious community for money. Maybe they will start having more religious shows on to solve their budget crisis.

Subject: Buddhist bullshit

i had to turn KPFA off again this morning, disgusted by the typical calm self-assured voice of yet one more religious person telling us how there is no bad or good and everything that happens is ok.
people simply have different perspectives, like the slave and the slaveowner, one is simply enjoying the experience and one isn't, or like the homeless asshole who knocked a pigeon down the sidewalk this morning with his cane where the poor thing lay there suffering and immobilized. o i'm sorry, unenlightened moi was making judgements again. i ges i should spend more time sitting on cushions until i can see the light. i assume a number of other content people with serene smiles on their faces will send you money after listening to this garbage.

Many of us feel the same and are reluctant to support a station that features pseudo new age crap like 'visionary activist' (yeh, right). Surely, there's a need for more coverage of real news and issues instead of psycho-babble.

i kind of like caroline casey mainly when she radio kisses (mua mua) or coyote screams (hohohohoh) but 99.99% of the time i have no clue what she is talking about. Some one could tell me?
