Unfortunately DP, Buddhism is toatally arbitrary. Maybe you should answer these questions before you move on.
Who determines what the "correct" understanding of human nature and ultimate reality is?
Who determines what being enlightened is?
Who determines who is enlightened?
What is the Buddhist's objective standard for goodness, or suffering?
What is truth in the Buddhist's universe?
Why should anyone believe Buddha over say Confucius?
What is the Buddhist's justification for universal, immaterial, unchanging laws?
How can people who have not been able to attain the "Noble Truth's in the past be able to attain them now?
How do Buddhist's deal with the guilt of their past transgressions?
When one does not have an answer for matters pertaining to God and the universe, isn't it a little too convenient to reject speculation on them?
And just WHO is being attacked here? I had to try to defend MY beliefs...I applauded him on his efforts on the site...waaaay back in the thread. CanuckFish was the one that "took it there"...and I also called for a lock on this after Feral...

You don't see anyone going on about what losers you are for whatever you are.
So, let me get this straight, if we're not "Christians", then we're losers? I didn't blast him for what he believes...I even said that if it worked for him, fine. That's just not the path that I am on. Read.

NO DP, canuck's been called far more than a loser on this thread and I was saying noone was calling anyone else such stuff.
I should also ad, that up until this point that you were the only person actually discussing on-topic with him.
I meant everyone else but for you.
AND I think that Canuck is attacking noone in no way--I think he
is totally bent out of shape from all the attacks and has been pushed into a corner.

Oh. Well, it turned into a theological discussion, so I went with it.
Methinks we all should shush now anyway.

I also think he very firm on what he believes, and is gonna
always come from a position that he is solid in his beliefs.
What he says will be stated as fact, just as you are free to present your position as fact...
That's just the way it is going to be..period.

Hey man, I'd love to get in on this IF it were a debate,
I have a lot to say, I just aint saying it because Canuck didn't start this thread
to get into a fight,...no matter what some folks have assumed.

He came to my desk with a quivering lip,
the lesson was done.
"Have you a new sheet for me, dear teacher?
I've spoiled this one."
I took his sheet, all soiled and blotted
and gave him a new one all unspotted.
And into his tired heart I cried,
"Do better now, my child."
I went to the throne with a trembling heart;
the day was done.
"Have you a new day for me, dear Master?
I've spoiled this one."
He took my day, all soiled and blotted
and gave me a new one all unspotted.
And into my tired heart he cried,
"Do better now, my child."
