Ah contraire, Jusan. As much as I dislike AC's lowbrow attempts (amazingly successful) to trigger other's reactions (a page right out of Alex's book), I'd rather spend my money supporting genuine Dharma teachers. The nun I study the Madyamika with can barely meet her living expenses, let alone afford health insurance. Perhaps AC would like to work his way over on a tramp steamer, or an oil tanker. His vocabulary is quite suitable, although I would fear for his longevity if he mouths off like he does around here. I'm sure a couple of roustabouts would be happy to deliver 30 blows as a teaching in expedient means. By the by, I must commend all the trench mouthed gutter slime for their creative slurs. Swearing has generally reached such a moribund state in the US culture that Mark Twain would die of boredom. I suggested to a high school English teacher once that he give extra credit to creative swearing if he really wanted to get kids into the language. However, perhaps it would be appropriate for those interested in provocative, combative language to start their own Zen site... Blessings, Ryunen ------------------------ Yahoo!
