You haven't really studied the teachings or abandoned them

If you are a Nichiren Shu, Soka Gakkai, or Nichiren Shoshu "Nichiren Buddhist" but you don't accept what we are telling you about Nichiren's teachings, you either haven't thoroughly studied his teachings [like most SGI members] or like Dave Cole, Ryuei, and some SGI members, you have abandoned them for the teachings of Nichikan, Ikeda, Nissatsu, Nichiki, or others.
