I found what you said very beautiful and true.
At the moment the Dalai Lama is visiting Germany, a wonderful event. Everyone is quite excited. When the people were interviewed who had seen him some said: he is a simple man; a humble man; a spiritualy powerful man; an open man; a happy man; an object of refuge; an inspiration; more popular than the Pope; an exile... . The funny thing is that they are all talking about the same one person. Although he is a Buddhist leader, he said something different to everyone, things which have nothing to do with Buddhism.
A pile of rocks ceases to be a rock pile when somebody contemplates it with the idea of a cathedral in mind.

I think you guys are taking me all wrong, so I'm gonna just stop posting in this thread, atleast for a while. I would like to point out, that yes I see other threads on other forms of \"religion\" but all those combined equal about half maybe two-thirds if I'm being generous of the Christian threads. Regardless, I'm going to take my leave of being the voice of opposition to everything, since its not wanted.

That being said: There is nothing wrong with pointing out that we have a great many other angles from which to view things...Which I think you do very well. I don't always agree with the manner in which you assert this insight, but i'm not blind to what your intentions are.
