Buddhism
Read this on OkCupid today and got super pissed off:
“Perhaps this makes me sound biggoted, but I think Buddhism is far to focused on one’s own spiritual development, compared to Christianity’s focus on your fellow man.

I remember when I was younger, and they were teaching us about the moon and the solar system, and most importantly exploring he surface of the moon. I remember imagining all having biospheres on the moon and being able to live up there. Of course, being so young, I over-looked almost all of the complications of being able to live in space, but there was one that I would always return to; water....
