I didn't know that.... I thought the goal was just to be free from suffering. But I know fuck all about Buddhism so thanks for the information.
Interesting post by the way too.
One major, major, major, MAJOR criticism though:

(My bolding)
That is so intensely blasphemous towards our beloved Flying Spaghetti Monster, to use the term 'noodly bullshit' as if "noodly" is a bad thing. And to suggest that noodly things need to be tolerated and to suggest that even that level of treatment is ridiculous... Such extreme blasphemy is so, so immoral of you.
Sorry I couldn't resist.
