Namaste.
I seem to be missing something, like the whole point of this.
That being said, every religion/philosophy is 'contradictory' when it's not viewed as
a totally individual and subjective experience.
Also, as harsh as it sounds - even if the whole
world had a different opinion to myself and wanted me to change to
their ways and beliefs, if it was not my 'own way' and made me uncomfortable as an
individual, I'm sure many expletives would result.
Tolerance is a 'two way street' and there's no way I will be tolerant of another's beliefs if they are not tolerant of mine - no way whatsoever! 'contradictory' or not because the whole bloody human condition is 'contradictory'.
So, Hinduism is 'contradictory' and Buddhism is 'contradictory' and I'll bet anything he doesn't personally agree with is going to be 'contradictory' and all I can ever say is 'suck my left big toe' in regards.
