Cool, so you're only being half of a dickheaded thought criminal. Good thing that shit is infinitely renewable and not at all divisible!

Oh, I'm sure none of us would presume to do your job for you, not when you do it so well.

Interesting. Doesn't your god care if you're a liar? Or doesn't it know? In your self-righteous indignation, the cracks in the veneer of your faith show through.

Yes, I'd spotted that myself.

Undeserving and wrong would be your misuse of the word "good" in that sentence.

Hello!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

My mother was a Buddhist. Buddhist worship the path of the 'awakened one.' To walk this path and to acheave this 'wakened' state elevates one to an enlightened sense of being, which trancends all of the 'dukkha/pain and suffering' the ignorant suffer from. To acheave this zen elevates these transcended believers to a state of nirvana. From this state some believe one can reach the ultimate state as a budda has and can be 'reborn' and keep coming back in higher states of existence. The end goal for the Buddhist is 'buddahood.' In essence Buddhism is a form of self worship that elevates it's believer too a FORM of godhood. So the Buddist worships the path to enlightment, which deifies the indivisual to a degree.
To be a Buddhist, and to fight in a war would destroy everything they believed in (That is why so many of them set themselves on fire rather than fight in a war.) For those who fought, and caused suffering and pain knew they could never have the hope to obtain a true state of Zen, thus pushing them to seek other religions, or to simply try and start over.

This has to be one of the most fucked up, wrong-headed descriptions of Buddhism that I've ever heard.

I thought that was the Republican Party theme song.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Can the irony train go in reverse? I think we need it to back up for another run!
Again... I'm honored with all the attention that I get! I'm trying not to get a big head here.
But, as usual you are late to the party!

Did you even read Min's post?
Care to rebut it in the thread itself? I mean, if it's bullshit, it should be easy, right?

At least he didn't scream they're all nihilists. That gets old.
Using a Nichiren site for support information may explain Drich's understanding. Maybe his mother was Soka Gakkai? Hardly a mainstream variant.
