Greetings stuka:

You solicited for arguments... no one is taking the bait.

I solicited for opinions, not argument construction.

The adage has nothing to do with "childish behavior"....
Gushing on and on about ones western philosophical heroes might be a first clue......

Another projection/inference. How do you get "gushing" out of a simple list & few easy questions?

You...take the assumptions "Buddha was an....x-ist, y-ist, z-ist"

Yet another projection/inference. Can you demonstrate this from my OP?

It seems rather disingenuous to put the pointed remarks "You do know what an argument is, right?" and "I'm not the one behaving childishly" and the salutation, "Metta,..." in the same post. Clearly in such a missive, any thoughts of metta have been discarded like so much useless refuse.

What's clear is our different understandings of metta.
