Oh, so for you the content of nirvana is as simple as arithmetic, something that you can be "correct" or "incorrect" about in describing it. It's so clear and simple to you, even though most Buddhists say that that state is ineffable.

Is my philosophizing about Buddhism helpful? Evidently not to some insecure Buddhists. Indeed, philosophy itself isn't helpful to most folks because its implications are disturbing, which is why philosophy isn't such a popular subject. Does that mean philosophy should end because most folks aren't disciplined enough to think critically? I think not.
