Killing the Buddha
The following list comes verbatim from the website Killing the Buddha. A description of Killing the Buddha, taken from their manifesto:
Killing the Buddha insists that if religion matters at all it matters enough to be taken to task. We believe it's high time for a new canon to be created, and that the Web is just the place to collect it. We refuse to accept the internet as a world wide shopping mall. We know intuitively it can be a sort of Talmudic cathedral, a tool of transcendence made of words. We're here to build it. If the end result looks more like Babel than the City of God, so be it. Babel, after all, came close.
