  Although this article presents some varying degrees of truth in Buddhism, I think it is NOT a Skillful Means to place it under the catergory of "
  Course: Buddhism 101 - Understanding The Basics".
  
  Obviously this writer has not yet developed the wisdom to speak in Skillful Means, and about Skillful Means. When we talk about Skillful Means - we must understand that in order to do so we must first and foremost develope wisdom. Without wisdom there is no way we can apply skillful means when dealing in various situations.
  
  Without Prajna & Compassion, if we were to break our Buddhist precepts we would be committing very bad karma for ourselves. It is not something that we can take lightly on - if we do the wrong things and think that it is "skilful means" as an excuse, we would have the karma of hell rebirth.
