Non christian?
So far all the abbeys listed here are christian, but Scotland does have the Samye Ling tibetan buddhist monastery in Langholm in the borders [1] (http://www.samyeling.org/), which is fairly famous and of decent size and standing. I can't see much reason not to list it here. Does anyone object? -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 15:08, 14 May 2004 (UTC)
I see no problem - there is nothing say that the page is intended to, or should relate exclusively to christian establishments.
In the England Abbeys list I have included a Buddhist meditation centre which was formerly a Priory - so this would merely be an extension of available relevant data.

- Super. John, do you intend to undertake a programme of writing articles for all these myriad institutions (heck, even listing them is a major effort)? I have some photos of the abbeys at Dryburgh, Melrose, and Jedburgh which I could upload, and I could be persuaded to take one of Inchmahome, but writing the corresponding articles is rather low on my to-do list, as writing Cambuskenneth Abbey mostly exhausted my patience. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 21:27, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
