The eternalism of Christianity is completely antithetical to Buddhism, where there is no eternalism (nor nihilism) and it is considered a downfall to believe such to be true.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04561666880371974930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-16749462832753839392008-12-02T09:28:00.000-08:002008-12-02T09:28:00.000-08:00An excellent question that deserves a whole new po...An excellent question that deserves a whole new post in explanation. <BR/><BR/>Coming tonight!Jason Miller,https://www.blogger.com/profile/03034226672257024583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-28424951943217784502008-12-01T23:25:00.000-08:002008-12-01T23:25:00.000-08:00How does this work?

It would seem to me that a valid transmission would transform each carrier of the message to at least a semblance of an enlightened or illuminated presence, sufficient to preclude behaviors like nail-gunning babies to anything. If not, and if we cannot look to the results of the carriers as indicators of the quality of their spiritual payloads, then how can we evaluate the value of the transmission?<BR/><BR/>In other words - I typically would dismiss any habitual baby-nail-gunner as spiritually corrupt to a point that I would limit my learnings from them to "what not to do". If I shouldn't do that, if doing that somehow limits me from noticing other value that qualifies them as legitimate carriers of a powerful spiritual current, then how should I look for that value? What qualities, characteristics or results could indicate possible value enough that I ought to overlook what I otherwise consider clear spiritual deficits?JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16773835722312671148noreply@blogger.com
