Evangelicals focus on Repentance . They beleive that once they repent, they are cleaned of all "original sin", and to push it even further, beleive that thier thoughts and actions are inspired by the Holy Spirit, since they invited God into thier life through repentance.Catholics , in general, do not focus so much on repentence, since they beleive that Baptism has already cleansed them. They tend to focus more on actions, then on the idea that they are already saved. Yet, many are still motivated by the Fear of Hell.Buddhism requires a strong self-discipline. Every Buddhist is taught about the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold path. Practice and Discipline is definately an aspect of all variations of Buddhism."become a better person" over night just by converting. Buddhism takes practice and dedication, consistancy. You have to remind yourself of what you are practicing through various practices and meditation.Respect and Compassion for All Living Things The Cessation of Suffering. Alliance is what do you think qualifies one as a "real Buddhist", and who are you to make such a claim ?__________________
