What do Buddhists believe?  Most people who use the term "dualism" are NOT Buddhist, and use the "dualism" as a wild card to defend irrationality, as in to separate lying/truth is dualism.  To make arguments based on fact instead of fiction is "dualism".

What is "religion"?  Part of a group with common beliefs that can be enuciated.  Are new agers religious?

Internet spiritualists vs Zazen and Mormonism.

Materialism is what now?

Materialism="there is an independent objective reality".  Materialism seems more relevant to Zen than Buddhist non-duality.

 

Can we call non-establishment new agers "internet spritualists"?
