I think the lack of dogmatism is a reflection of staying on the Middle Path. We've all seen enough of the craziness that comes from having extreme and intolerable viewpoints.

has anyone looked into Buddhism?
by poor places ini've started reading a book called the modern buddhist's bible and i'm liking a lot of things about the religion so far.
of course i don't know much yet, but there seem to be some very good points to buddhism.
one thing i love is the emphasis on "killing" the ego (or whatever you might want to call what buddhists try to do with their egos!).

I was growing old waiting for Jehovah's celestial chariot to keep up with me.

I'm into a Western version of Zen. I don't believe everything I read about Buddha, just as I don't believe everything I read about Jesus. I just try to glean wisdom from their teachings that can help me in my life. What I've learned about Buddhism has really helped me find an inner peace. I've posted several threads about Zen Living, would love to hear your take on them.

I especially enjoyed the footage of the Great Tribulation, Armageddon, and the Resurrection. Isn't it wonderful to be on a Paradise earth?

Questions for Leolaia (possibly the board's brainiest poster :)
by JimmyPage inleo, do you have reference books about the bible stored on your computer?
you seem to have a lot of info at your disposal that you can pull up quickly.
what is your motive for learning so much about the bible?
