Not at all!

But I have to throw in an observation of mine that IMO shows a difference
between Taoism and Zen Buddhism that at least is important for Western
people:  I have the impression that Taoism in its roots rejects the idea
of technical progress while Zen Buddhism behaves indifferently in this regard.
If I remember correctly, Taoism was partly a "back-to-nature" counter-movement
when new machines (like draw wells) were invented and supported by
Confucianist people.

What do you say?  --ralf
