Fully agree with Neville . Please change the caption of "Big Bad Buddha". It IS most offensive, in bad taste, and unnecessary.
Personally i think it obvious that anyone saying BigBadJesus really meant no insult whatsoever, as i'm sure you have no doubt any insult was intended. I find it a shame that anyone should give any time to such things whilst a regime claiming to be Buddhist commits atrocities against it's fellow countrymen. I am not suggesting that anyone having commented on this photo should have any sympathy with such actions, but a more general wish that Religions and Religious people pay more attention to the core spirituality of the teachings than the pettiness that lies on the surface of all religions. This is not intended to be offensive, who can say that their religion is without blame?
