    I find it entertaining. I've got to careful, you know, some posters actually do leave after being dealt an argumentative beat down. I appreciate wind songs tenacity; no matter how irreconcilable.

And when I said "this isn't a thread to discuss Buddha", that simply means that I don't think the thread was intended for such. That's not me telling you what you can and cannot post. If anyone did such, it would be you, who told me the discussion was over because you didn't like my reply. Stop being a victim and just continue posting whatever you like.

    Hmm, I'll take that under advisement.

    Since when did that ever stop people from commenting online before?

    Not too often. Instead of saying I don't have enough knowledge, I should have said "I don't have enough interest in the subject to comment on which was more intelligent."

    Having been deeply involved in something I had intimate knowledge which was written about in an article posted online by a prominent newspaper followed by dozens of comments from anonymous posters after the article, I came to the conclusion that 99% of people know jackshit about the topic on which they are commenting. I also concluded that the press wasn't much better.
