        That's definitely a view.  Quoting the Mahayana scriptures   
   shows I don't reject that branch of Buddhism.  Same for my   
   statement Buddhism isn't confined to any one perspective and my   
   explanation that I'm not debating who's allowed to wear a   
   "Buddhist" tag.  All of which somehow went sailing right by you.
