This week you have two options. Choose one only. If you have an interest in writing about the second issue as well, why not take that over to the regular discussion forum?
Option #1
The Point of the Legends
The details of Gautama's life are entirely enshrouded in legend, and legend characteristically heavy with tendentious interpretation. Thus, for instance, the Four Passing Sights are rather spectacular, if somewhat obvious interpolations of doctrine. Similarly one might wonder the significance of the Gautama's activities between the Great Going Forth and the Awakening. What's the point, would you say?
Option #2
Harris and Eastern Religions
Apparently Sam Harris' critique of religion is meant to be more harshly directed toward Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, than against Hinduism and Buddhism, true? How do you account for the fact that he seems so much more sympathetic to those "Eastern" religions, than to the great 'Western" monotheisms?
