Poking the Badger

So now your concern about the Dalai Lama has expanded to him being responsible for what the President of the University decided to step to the podium and discuss? So your expectation is that he reviews the comments of everyone that speaks at an engagement where he does? Perhaps it boils down to my willingness to take the commentary at face value and the cynical badger not being willing to do so. I'll bet you disagree...

Apparently I misread your original commentary. While I didn't think the badger had authored those comments, it appeared from my vantage point you were agreeing with them. If that was off, that's my mistake. Regardless I can't speak to, nor am I willing to be lumped in with the opinions of other Americans in regards to Christianity and money. I don't harbor those concerns, criticisms, or beliefs.

I also don't make a habit of criticizing religious figures, mostly because I'm about as religion stupid as they come. That being said, any criticism I would levy against religious figures or those with devout religious beliefs would be the "do as I say, not as I do" criticism. Just like most public figures, religious leaders are held to a much higher standard than the average joe. And in my opinion, since they are advising and guiding average joe, I think the higher standard is appropriate.

Poking the badger...
