Wow, that is quite an interesting and impressive way of viewing life. I know that some Korean Christians do admire Buddhism for its importance in Korean history. Unfortunately, I don’t think many Christians have any respect for the shamanistic traditions.

Yeah “Snow”, that is one thing that knocks me out too. I will never forget seeing a female Buddhist monk walking arm-in-arm with a Catholic nun here. That sort of enlightened attitude is what I find to be more common here than in other places.
