Jainists just seem.... Odd... Idk how to put it really. I never knew what it was til I saw it listed in this post. I can't discount it to say it isn't a religion or doesn't count, but they seem extremely helpless. Being the victim doesn't make you violent but it could set you up for a violent end if you aren't careful and it seems like they don't have much regard for self preservation. It's like they do but they don't. Idk man its just so different in comparison its almost like it doesn't belong on the poll.

This is kinda great its hard to understand because it is truly a peaceful religion unlike the others

Buddhism is pretty different too, it's just that we are familiar with it. Jainism, at it's core, is entirely about nonviolence. That's about as peaceful as you can get, the main teaching is to not harm others.

I'm definetly going to continue reading up on it. I might not become a technical expert anytime soon but I do love learning about new things!

Yeah. Learning about peoples view on the ultimate reality of everything is always pretty interesting.

Just curious but where are you originally from? I saw you posted a bit further down with the OP and your mention of people from further west not being as likely to know about it, I can side with that statement, but how did you find out about it, do you know of anyone who actively practices, and how long have you known about it? Not that time matters really, just trying to get a feel for your background. Edit also purely for Irony's sake and since no one said it I think anyone who Google's it initially may immediately go against it mainly for a specific symbol used. I know it originally meant and still does mean peace but still, just made me chuckle
