TechnojunkFactory ::: Favorites a fundamental Buddhist teaching on causation and the ontological status of phenomena. The doctrine teaches that all phenomena arise in dependence on causes and conditions and lack intrinsic being. 07-08-04 19:13:41 _____________________________________________________
TechnojunkFactory ::: Favorites The doctrine is expressed in its simplest form: when this exists, that arises, which can be expressed in the logical form A -> B (when condition A exists, effect B arises), or as its negative --A -> -B (where condition A does not exist, effect B does not arise). 07-08-04 19:15:19 _____________________________________________________
TechnojunkFactory ::: Favorites The important corollary of this teaching is that there is nothing that comes into being through its own power or volition, and there are therefore no entities or metaphysical realities such as "God" or "soul", (ātman) that transcend the causal connection or link. 07-08-04 19:15:58 _____________________________________________________
TechnojunkFactory ::: Favorites The Buddha became enlightened when he fully realized the profound truth of Dependent Origination, namely that all phenomena are conditioned (samskrta) and arise and cease in a determinate series. 07-08-04 19:18:33 _____________________________________________________

Phreemunny ::: Favorites Excellent job pointing out one of the logical flaws of the "Intelligent Design" arguement (ironically named, as those that support this "theory" have to stifle thier intelligence to buy into it.) I.D.ers believe that if they can only "disprove" evolution, it will finally lay to rest any debate--effectively proving creationism. Unfortunately, disproving A does not prove B.

Phreemunny ::: Favorites And while were at it, why stop at providing equal time to different "theories" in this one area of science. I propose we allow equal time in schools for theological explanations for everything in science! Gravity? Non-sense--angels hold us down on the ground! Viruses? Heresy! Illness is the result of demon possession! Bats are mammals? Come now silly, everyone knows they are fowl, like ducks or chickens! (The Bable told me so.) 07-08-05 01:02:53 _____________________________________________________
