Marsha The above statement seems to be a poor and underhanded challenge to my interest in Buddhism. But maybe you have legitimate concerns, and I would like to hear the basis for such a remark. [Krimel] My main point was that conviction is not of function of reason and evidence any more than perception is a function on sensation. We accept what feels right regardless of logic or facts. Logic and facts get bent to fit our gut level sense of betterness without regard to truth. My secondary point with regards to Buddhism is really; are you running "toward" the "betterness" of Buddhism or "away" from the "worseness" of western thinking.
