I've killfiled Rod a long time ago, just because of this sort of argument. 
He proves that you can misunderstand and misrepresent everything.  I hate it 
when the killfile filter sometimes doesn't work, and I have to see his 
nonsense.  And I hate it when someone responds to him, and I have to read 
his nonsense, too.  Please don't.  Just killfile him, he's an idiot at 
"feels like enlightenment" level.

You know why some Buddhists say one path to enlightenment is ingorance?  
Dunning-Kruger effect: The confidence level is highest when you are a 
complete idiot, decreases when you start gaining knowledge, and then, when 
you reach mastership, increases again, to reach another high at the real 
enlightenment.  However, real enlightenment is hard, so there's the fake 
enlightenment on the other side of the Dunning-Kruger valley, the "ignorance 
is bliss"-style "enlightenment".  The difference is: When you are really 
enlightened, you know everything, and all things you know are true, 
including your self-assessment, which means you know that you are enlighted.  
On the other side, you know nothing, everything you think of is wrong, 
including your self-assessment, which means you think you are enlighted.

Confucius says "only the idiots and the wise people never change".  So 
there's no point in arguing with either side: The idiot is always wrong, and 
will never change (there's no way to convince him), and the wise man is 
always right, and won't change either.  Fortunately, wise men are much rarer 
than idiots, in fact, the 100% sage doesn't exist.  But the 100% idiot is 
commonplace.
