View Full Version : < > or = with a / gods too.
He certainly is when you don't believe there are any gods.How, exactly? The writer has merely substituted "Buddha" for "God" in a standard English phrase; the intention remains the same although the phrase is a complete nonsense since Buddha < > God
If I understand you correctly Homi, you are saying Buddha is more or less a god? If that is what you are saying, then I should correct you. Buddha was a man, and never claimed to be anything else.Since the < > symbol stands for "not equals" I'd say your understanding is wrong. My point is that since, as you say, Gautama never claimed to be more than a man and said that all questions about whether God exists are meaningless as we can never know, clowns like George substituting the word Buddha for God in common English expressions just shows what damn fools they are

Homointern,
In the good old USA, ">" means greater then and "<" means less then and not equal is an "=" sign with a "/" through the middle. I knew we had different languages but different signs?
Can't say I've seen either of these symbols anyway :)I'm afraid I can take no responsibility for gaps in your education - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_m ... al_symbols (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_mathematical_symbols)

Darn I must have missed computer science while I was taking calculus. Math symbols ~ computer science symbols. Thanks for the education.

What education? You mean I could have had one?There are one or two good Catholic schools, I suppose
Ah, I remember now. There is a God and his name is Robert Zimmerman.He invented the Zimmer frame, right?
I'm told so Homi but in the one I went the good fathers were more interested in getting inside our shorts rather than teaching us anything.Everyone has to have a hobby. Did you enjoy it, by the way?

They do everywhere else too, darhling. Poor old Beryl. Perhaps she was pawing at her null hypothesis? I hear it does get a bit crusty.
