I agree. Did you know that there is a theory that Jesus spent time with Buddhists in Egypt...hence the similarities between the Sermon on the Mount and Buddhist tenants...
I had suspected as much. The Lotus Sutra and the teachings of Jesus have many eary similarities.

Well, Buddhism does have many qualities i think Jesus would have liked, the real danger though is this Half-Buddhism that is becoming quite popular, where people take on the lighter roles of Buddhism but neglect the more serious aspects. A sort of, pick and choose.
