Or is the Christian mythology archetypal? paul spencer
maybe if you boil christianity down to its essence, sans effluvia, it comes down to a bouillon of two basic ingredients:
whether it cannot be superceded... i suspect so, it's the how that is the puzzle.
but were that impulse unsuccessful, at least the old tried and true one was noble, if overchallenging for most, (therefore alienating). buddha's road is better tailored to the average human's scale and range of attainability.
the theory is fine, it's the execution that's the problem... the numbers need onside to make ahimsa effective are a quantum magnitude greater that what is muster-able now. 'The history of public debt is full of irony. It rarely follows our ideas of order and justice.' Thomas Piketty
