I am the walking embodiment of the first and second noble truths of Buddhism.
I am about to make a statement that has been totally unresearched and may be completely unsupported/not in line with Buddhism. I am not a Buddhist, nor do I currently feel up to the due diligence requirement, so I'm just going to stick my next thought up here like I wanted to, to begin with. I may or may not come back to do more research to get the full/better understanding of Buddhism at a later time. Meantime, of course, you may feel free to contribute to my education in this regard as applicable. For now, here's just the next thought:
Does blind acceptance = enlightenment?

acceptance , to me, is never , blind....
Heck no. Blind acceptance is what people who are led do. Even Buddhists have to make judgement calls. I mean... you know... acceptance is great. I am overly accepting and I have to say... that leads to trouble. Tempered acceptance... following your intuition mixed with acceptance... educated acceptance... yes... excellent. Blind acceptance... go ahead, if you're so inclined. Don't say I didn't tell you so.
not enlightenment, but possibly peace.
