I know you started to address my rebuttal before, but while I started to respond to these you declared yourself the "winner" so I decided not to continue wasting my time. I'm glad I didn't though, as (i) you should be debating with SGI-USA members who seem to exhibit more of this cult-like behaviour you talk about, and (ii) you left the Kempon Hokke within a few months and my replies to you were lost when you deleted your KH blog. If I'd realised your allegiance to a Buddhist school was so fleeting, I would have saved these posts and your replies to me.
I must admit I was disappointed to see you leave the Kempon Hokke just a few weeks after reporting there was some kind of internal difference of opinion. I was genuinely looking forward to see how you would deal with such a difference of opinion in faith, philosophy or practice within your own organisation. Seems the best way in your eyes was just to quit, the same way as you quit the SGI.
Do you mean like Vasubandu who quit the Hinayana and Nichiren who quit the Nembutsu and Tientai? It's called Enlightenment, something you sorely lack since you remain in the Soka Gakkai personality cult. I have all the old posts and comments which I will republish this evening. The Sangha of the Bodhisattvas of the Earth is to which I belong and have always belonged.
This was my rebuttal to this list 18 months ago when you were still a proud member of the Kempon Hokke.
