Wed Jul 6, 2016, 09:06 AM

Jul 2016

Buddhists in JAPAN today admitted the Buddha's statue size is totally accurate. The giant man walked the earth, after being born from a gigantic lotus flower, sixteen stories high, found in India. Being so huge, allowed him to freely walk about Asia at his leisure as armies of people brought him tons and tons of vegetables, so he wouldn't be tempted to eat them...

uh, no.... but the story may as well be real as that thing in Kentucky. Geesh... I could say a few things, but it would probably get my response hidden.
