Anyone who has toyed with enlightenment knows that being drawn into conviction by enticement is an absolutely sure path into a dead end. His statement is wise and appropriate. In addition to offering a false trail, it also makes competitirs out of people who are offering trails up the same mountain. How silly is that? Especially since those who take their "convictions" a little too seriously are awfully fond of turning religous views into political grounds for slaughter or other "disincentives".

A belief worth having does not need "enticement" -- it just needs discovery by the individual concerned. Otherwise, ti's a fairy tale.
