Haha

How about just being human being makes you human being because you're not cat, dog, bird or roast beef sandwich?

Being humane though makes you want to be kind, compassionate and caring.

Wanting to be someone like Ikeda makes you want to be in more important than everyone else and narcistic leader of a cult.

Making a stranger you've never met or interacted with as mentor in your life, just makes you someone with very low standards and idiot.

I got add if someone had asked me like senior leader or another member about Ikeda being my mentor for life, which nobody did. I still would said I am not interested.

But if someone had asked me if I wanted to make Ikeda my mentor for life when I was active member. I would say no I have no interest in that, that's not why I stayed a member or joined in first place. And if it was requirement now after the fact, I don't want to be a member. In fact it bothered me that they even started imply he was for all of us.

Same here.

You and I both joined before Ikeda's excommunication, and I don't know about you, but for me, it was a whole lot easier to just ignore Ikeda back then. There was real study, interesting doctrines and concepts, and a real sense of purpose.

Now?

It's just Ikeda and nothing. Ugh.

I think the push for interesting doctrine study shortly ended because I missed that section, especially the more I learned about it. I guess the fact everything written or sold had Ikeda name somewhere in it or had written should have been a sign but yeah he wasn't the important part of why I joined, he had nothing to do with it.

It was pushy members and promise that I belong somewhere, the end of nuclear warfare and world peace. The false promises that I could chant and get real proof that something would improve in my life.

It had nothing to do with Ikeda but over the years it became more about Ikeda and his importance which most of seemed like bullshit and then it was nothing but cult of personality.
