Reincarnated lama visits Colorado

Is it fair to designate a young boy a reincarnated lama? Could it do as much psychological harm as sexual abuse? |
& I am the reincarnation of the tooth fairy !!!:bsflag:

I can't see it even being on the same playing field as sexual abuse. Maybe more like being born to famous parents, but without most of the negative things that go along with it.
Maybe he will have an opportunity to meet Steven Seagal Rinpoche, and get some of that western culture he's interested in. |
Of course it's BS, it's based on religion. The more interesting question is whether indoctrinating young kids into their parents'/society's religion is actually harmful, or if it's just a harmless tradition (e.g., Santa or the Easter Bunny). This is an extreme case, but what about the "average" parents who teach their religion to their kids before the children are old enough to make their own decisions; is that also harmful, or is just harmless fantasy?

According to Buddhist theory . . . my legal career is going to put me so far back in line, I'll be lucky to be a vertabrate in the next life.

In this particular instance I do think it is harmful. They have taken away some of the most important choices that modern children/teenagers/young adults make. His life has been mapped out for him by adults who are using him for their own ends in his youth.
Anyone ever hear of a reincarnated lama opting out when he turns of age? Not me. |

Don't know why, but the first thing that popped into my head after seeing this thread was a scene from the animated movie "The Emperor's New Groove" -
"EVIL LLAMA!! EVIL LLAMA!!":D Methinks perhaps I forgot my meds this morning. |
