Listing of noted Buddhists/Talk

Is the Dalai Lama a celebrity because he's a Buddhist, or because he's a god?

• :-) I meant, [Richard Gere]? and [Tina Turner]? became famous as media stars and are only post-facto Buddhists, HH Dalai Lama is a Buddhist first and foremost who also became famous.

27 September 2001. Seems to me these category headings on Listing of noted Buddhists aren't unambiguous. Suggest we remove category headings and just go with an alphabetical list. * Comments? *

If no argument against doing this I will wait one week until 4 October 2001 and then make this change as soon afterwards as I remember. Thanks.

I put in the headings initially, but it's a good argument. I was actually following the "celecrity atheists" and "noted atheists" situation, planning to split the pages when the lists got long enough.

But I agree. Alphabetical anonymity is sort of Buddhist anyway ...Meantime, I'll start setting up stub pages.

Anyway, I am going to make a start on filling in
