  old and I'm from Canada. And most people
  in Canada are Christians, they're Catholics
  or Protestants and my parents are Catholic
  but I've done a lot of traveling in my life and
  now I'm interested in the Buddhist religion,
  Buddhism. It's a very peaceful religion and it
  has some philosophies that I believe in, for example, it talks about
  detachment. You should not get attached to money or you
  shouldn't get attached to fancy cars and fancy clothes. You
  should try to simplify your life and have as little as possible. Be
  comfortable but don't have too much. Don't have.. don't be
  excessive with what you have and I believe in this philosophy.
  The Buddhist religion also has a philosophy of karma, of the
  cycle of good behavior, brings you good behavior in return and if
  you act bad, bad things will happen to you and I think this is kind
  of true because if you do good things for people, most of the time
  good things happen to you. People treat you well. If you treat
  people poorly and badly, people will treat you badly, so I believe
  in this Buddhist philosophy of Karma and good things will happen
  to you if you do good things for others.
  Canada is a very peaceful country and I'm a peaceful guy. I don't
  believe in fighting and I don't believe in war and my neighbor,
  across the border, the United States of America is at the moment
  at war with Iraq and for me this is a very senseless or sort of silly
  thing to be doing. I think it wastes money and it wastes lives and I
  think there should always be sort of.. some sort of peaceful way to
  end an argument. So I believe in peace and I don't think war
  should be.. I think war is a waste of time and a waste of people
and a waste of lives.</p></div>]]>
