Ok, as promised, here is the extract of that reply of your, to teamjoker which I find to be very misleading and which I sincerely hope is due to your ignorant rather than intentional.

Since Buddhism is a way of life, Buddha says the percepts are important. Do you follow them then? Meditation to me is to train your awareness. I dont do it too because I am too restless and lazy. haha

Again, you don't need to follow what the Buddha said to live the right way of life. You use common sense and logic with a good heart is enough.
Yes, I explain earlier. When one meditates correctly, the mind will be totally neutral and free of all impurities and filled with only good energies. This makes room for new knowledge, mindfulness and awareness. So the end result is leads to wisdom. It also brings better health to the body. This is why Islam and Christianity cannot do this type of meditation. They don't want their followers to have awareness and wisdom. Their way of meditation is done with the mind keeps remembering their religion. Something like chanting in Buddhism.
Firstly, your advise are ill given, how can you be advising against holding precepts? Do you even know what is precepts? Simple

Secondly, is your take on chanting in buddhism. You liken Buddhist chanting to meditating in others religion, the purpose of which is to keep the mind train to remember their religion. BUT, IS IT?

With advise like this. How could you expect me to keep quiet and let you persist in doing so, uh? Simple

This will be my last post until a week's time. I am going overseas to attend a religious function. Hopefully I have new discoveries to contribute when I am back.
My bathing example so simple yet you don't understand ? It means someone who bath for 10 mins(not 3 mins, are you too old to see well ?) can be cleaner than someone who bath for an hour. Not every bath in the same manner, don't you understand that ?

ROFL.
Simple. ...simple. ooih
Indeed, if one were to read your argument ( an extract of which I attached below ) out of context, then yes, it's valid but hey, have you forgotten what was my origination contention that lead you to made such a ridiculous reply.

Tak tsk tsk.

Here, let me refresh on had transpired.

This article were written by an author with over 3 decades exploring Buddhism and is the editor and creator of the wheel newsletter for the buddhist Centre in mississauga in Canada.

Let me help you to improve. Maybe your teacher the Buddha never mentioned this.
It is not right to use the above to prove or show credentials for anyone. Think of this:
If I tell you I bath 3 times a day but you only bath once everyday, it doesn't mean that my body must be cleaner than yours; or if you take I hour bath while I take only 10 min, it doesn't mean your body is cleaner. I guess you will not understand. Never mind.Read and think WISELY before you comment.


Therefore, applying your logic in relation to my contention is similar to agreeing that a PhD is no more any wiser nor cleverer than a street sweeper. ( or more aptly, an author with over 3 decades exploring Buddhism plus other achievement in this fields, his knowledge cannot be any better than a person with only a basic knowledge in Buddhism, Is it?

This is my 3rd advice for tonight:Be Wise;  and it's also taught by the Buddha too.
Walauehh. The desire for fame and recognition is strong in you, mister Luke. But beware the dark force Luke. Be humble least the dark force will drag you down.

That Muslim fella still continue with you over thereand  I replied him gau gau.

Meaning?, you want me to relieve your duty there right? ROFL

BTW, I too will need to time of for 1 week. All this tedious to typing and formatting is taking a heavy toll on me poor hand.

I need to Pai Kuan, Pai Kuan for 1 week.

And hopefully, with renew energy and additional wisdom gain will see the world more more clearly.

Tata and do have a safe journey, bro simple. 😊
