Krimel,

You've claimed to have studied Buddhism, then surely you are familiar 
with the two truths doctrine.  You know, mountains are mountains 
again?  The conventional is the way the world has come to function, 
and one can be perfectly comfortable using concepts while knowing 
they do not represent the ultimate truth.

And I was anticipating your attack.
