Chio them to get down the bus and fight mano-a-mano with you to see who's right
the thing is at this day and age, buddhism doesn't appeal to kids as much as christianity becoz of culture...
kids these days are more materialistic...
for christmas they get toys...for vesak day wot they get?
churches appeal more to kids beocz of the interactivity amongst youths...namely most guys go there for the girls...
its more of a culture thing...they feel more westernised...
Because Buddhism is still very traditional. Chrisitianity has been promoted by megachurches here to the point that you're unfashionable if you're not a christian.
And I get very pissed when people try to promote christianity with me, I just guailan with them. One case when the guy got very aggressive and didn't want to let me off, I told him to beat it or I'll call the cops and see how Jesus will save you.

Why the hell would you even promote Buddism on the bus?
Wrong place leh...
But you think lah, I always told my parents I don't believe in these kind of stuffs though my whole family is buddhist.
Those megachurch only preach about giving tithes, once I went to CHC. The pastor said something along the lines of..
"Tithe is to give money to appreciate god blah blah blah, any amount is good, but remember. God is watching."
WTF? Thought is supposed to give if you're willing?
And they only use the money for what? Bigger and more mega church to attract more people for more tithe?
Look at those temples, they are using moneys purely out of donations and they're cooking meals everyday feeding people of different race and religions.
It doesn't take more than second whom I would rather give my money to.
Y would u wan to promote buddhism on e bus in e 1st place doesn't tat make you like one of those christians tat wan to pull ppl to their church no diff wor...
Its their own beliefs if ppl got the heart u no ned to promote ppl also will join buddhism de.
Might as well make something like a outing w ur buddhist members n create like an outing do yoga or meditation or some sort if ppl interested sure will approach u guys de.
Beats gettin angry over this kinda matter. Although i prefer 80's 90's music i guess diff generation have different ways of dealing w problems n so does music. *some of e music nowadays also quite nice* Just like nightwish also one of em ^^.....
