Hello Ham, I was attempting to justify a perfectly good word, and you want to turn it into 'there are no atheists in a foxhole... ' I am not a Buddhist and I do not need Buddhism, but I do very much admire Buddhism. I also very much admire the Metaphysics of Quality. Both would point you towards Betterness. But mostly I admire them because they point to the wisdom of the Pythia of Delphi: Know Thyself.
