Actually, Buddhism doesn't require blind faith.
Dogma isn't blind faith, SD, although that's how Skull was attempting to use the word...as an insult
That's why I pointed out that every religion or cosmological POV, or even philosophical system of thinking have their dogmas.
We are advised to 'try out' the teachings and accept only what seems true for us.
Which makes one question whether your kind of Buddhism (there is more than one kind of Buddhist, I suspect) is a religion at all.
Do you, for example, have FAITH in reincarnation?
Or do you just think. "Well, maybe...who knows?"
I suspect that you can take either POV and still call yourself a Buddhist.
How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
First...you have to know what an elephant really is.
