My Interaction With a Buddhist on the Internet
Buddhist: There is no pebble, for all things are impermanent.
Me: If there are no pebbles or anything because nothing is permanent, that means that you don't exist either. And if you can say that, you really don't believe it.
Buddhist: In the grand scheme of things; No, I don't exist and neither do you.
Me: Whom, may I ask, wrote this?
