His Buddhism is pretty consistent that way, if it really isn't consistent with Buddhism.

The Bar Buddhist says he doesn't talk about politics: he prefers to stay above the petty matters of man. But when he talks about the petty matters of man he is usually talking about current politics. And he talks about the petty matters of man a lot.

An example. He is for higher taxes for the rich: because Buddhism. You can probably extrapolate from there.

When it comes to politicians caught in scandals, he gets very enthused about the petty matters of man. Sometimes Buddhism understands and forgives the scoundrel, sometimes it will exact terrible karmic revenge. He is pretty sure on which will happen, depending on the politician. His Buddhism is pretty consistent that way, if it really isn't consistent with Buddhism.

My guess is that his Buddhism primarily helps with his not getting laid. The universe has reasons. Sometimes when he gets really drunk he talks about becoming a Guru. Because chicks dig Gurus, I believe is the thinking. I thought that the chicks-digging-gurus was pretty much a Sixties Thing. Although his head is still pretty much in the Sixties. Even though he was in grade school at the time.

He could consider becoming a yoga instructor: he might have better chances in today's world. But he is not nearly limber enough for yoga. And he wants the limber girls.
