creation/where did i come from?, page-8

Snider, seemingly interested in the fertility god, does not comprehend what was posted

lets do it again:

Buddha: From craving as a requisite condition comes clinging. From clinging as a requisite condition comes becoming. From becoming as a requisite condition comes ['self'] birth. From birth as a requisite condition, then aging & death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, distress & despair come into play. This is the origination of the world.

James: Each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire [craving] and enticed [clinging]. Then, after desire has conceived [becoming], it gives birth to sin [selfish self-centredness]; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death [suffering].

Religion that as pure and faultless is to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. Don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.

Snider seems to not understand many things of essential importance
