Truth


Instead of arbitrating whose religious claims are true, the Buddha comments on the absurdity of how some people argue about the truth. Everyone would be equally a fool if the only criterion for being a fool is not approving an opponent's doctrine. On the other hand, no one would be a fool if one is wise merely because one claims to be. 

~Gil Fronsdal, in "The Buddha before Buddhism"
