Orientals are Godless people. Buddhism is a philosophy of how you should live your life rather than the worship of a deity. They have no morals because they don't believe in a God.

Pretty sure morality is a code how to live your life.
With any other site I'd say parodist, but it's Stormfront, so everything is possible...
The Five Precepts of Buddhism:
1. Do not kill.
2. Do not steal.
3. Do not have improper sex.
4. Do not lie.
5. Do not get drunk.
No morals, huh?
In fairness, the precepts are debated and serve as guidelines rather than strict rules. Most Buddhist monastics aren't supposed to have sex, but Buddhist laity can do what they want as long as it doesn't cause suffering. Some Buddhists are vegetarian, to not kill animals. Others eat meat and simply avoid killing other humans and causing animals undue pain. Sometimes they conflict: is it moral to steal food to feed the starving? And so on.
But the same applies to the Jewish/Christian commandments.
So basically you're saying that you're only good because you want to be rewarded by God, fear his punishment, and that you can't conceive that other people have different views on morality? Congratulations. Your level of moral development is equal to that of a small child.
You know, I'd point out that not all east Asian people are Buddhist, and that a notable minority in certain countries are in fact Christian, but something tells me a member of Stormfront wouldn't be able to comprehend the idea that a group of "others" can have some sort of diversity in their ranks.
Apart from the fact that one of my favourite people on earth is from China, very moral, and not Buddhist:
Catholicism and most brands of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are in practice about how you should live your life.
It's funny how the Nazi wannabes view Asian peoples; with their level of cultural development roughly equal to but different from Western cultures, their degenerate ideology chooses to view them as intelligent but soulless, more akin to robots than human beings.
Oh, the mental gymnastics a racist must go through...
Yes, every day I'm seeing the unloving words of Buddhists as they recommend people shut up, go to hell, or ... no wait I'm confusing religions again.
At least they live peacefully and don't bother people on Sunday morning by cramming their personal beliefs down peoples' throats.
"Buddhism is a philosophy of how you should live your life rather than the worship of a deity."
Well, duh! Moron. No one claims it's exclusively a religion. Morals are guidelines to how you live your life.
They have no morals yet stormfront is unapoligetically racist
They have no morals yet Buddhism has less(if an at all) blood on its hands than the Abrahamic faiths.
They have no morals yet try to live good lives.
They have no morals yet as a whole are a better people than you and your ilk.
What does that say about you?
P.S. one does not need god to be moral. One does not need to be moral to have god
Please. Please. Please. Please let this be a Poe.
...Oh, what the hell. It's Stormfront. It's not a poe.
Welp, looks like my irony meter is gonna blow after all.
Being treated as immoral by a Neo-Nazi is like being treated as crook by Madoff and I would rather being immoral than worshipping one of the worst criminal in history.
Morality is based on the basis of not harming someone else by one's acts and not on the will of reward or the fear of punishment from a supreme being.
A fucking Nazi doesn't get to criticize anyone else about morals. You are scum, no, wait, you're the scum that gets stuck to other scum. The kind of scum that makes other forms of scum feel dirty. Clearly your God hasn't done anything to prevent you from becoming a monster so why should I give a shit about your God's so-called morality? If your God's morality includes hating Jews, black people, gays and anyone else that's different then I want nothing to do with it.
I wonder how Mr. Stormbutt would explain "Orientals" like Malaysians & Indonesians?
Oh, heck...he'll rattle the same waarrgarrbl that he uses for Mid-Eastern folks.
Okay, then...South Korea & The Philippines.
He'd probably call Filipinos "Weird Papist Chink-Spics" or something stupid like that.
Yes, the feeling of racial superiority is the bet indicator of morals. In retrospect, the holocost should have included most asian people. (except a few women to use as exotic prostitutes by white men)
Buddism does have morals. The morals have no authority from which they derive from, they are simply presented as being self-evident. Like "well yeah no duh, of course we shouldn't kill, steal, or lie for personal gain because those are just dick things to do."
I wonder how many of the Stormfront bullyboys are aware thart their beloved Nazis sent several expeditions to Tibet.
Why? Because they believed that the Tibetans were the first real Aryans on the planet!
"Buddhism is a philosophy of how you should live your life rather than the worship of a deity."
I'm still waiting for an explaination of how this is a bad thing.
"They have no morals because they don't believe in a God."
Doesn't the use of "a God" instead of "the God" or just "God" indicate that you believe there's more than one? Isn't that sacrilege among most of your cadre?
I guess Hitler, Jeff Dahmer, Bonnie and clyde, and all those others are moral, oh wait.....
If you stab me, do I not bleed, you Prick?
@Valerius:
They're all God's children !
FYI, I am an "Oriental", in the words of OP. I'm not going to bother with the first sentence, I don't know much about the 2nd, but I disagree with the 3rd. I acknowledge that God may be a driving force for some where other moral or legal codes fail (i.e. even if the law is ambiguous, one can still do good by following God's will). But to extrapolate this all the way to considering all Orientals as "Godless" and thus conclude the absence of morality in Orientals, especially as your judgment hinged on one philosophy that may be considered a religion. While the Pantheon of Gods across multiple religions can be considered cosmic metaphors for universal ethical principles, they have too often been simplified to a reward-incentive-punishment-fear system.
