Eh, it's still based on completely unfounded, unsupported, and nonsensical ideas. Whether or not there's a personal god doesn't make any real difference IMO.
clearly someone is unaware of the human experience
Reincarnation is not part of that. That's what I'm talking about, in case it's not clear.
If you think about it, life is cyclical and your remains will eventually be reincarnated into energy for another life form eventually.
That's not what the term means in Buddhism, though, and reaching spiritual enlightenment doesn't prevent it.
I mostly agree with you, but the act of using meditation to increase one's mental well being, in particular, is not an unfounded or nonsensical idea. It may have been when it was first described, but we have scientific data now that shows that meditation can be pretty beneficial for people.
