Talk:Buddhism and Christianity

message: It is well known that knowledge about Buddhism was already present in pre-Christian Roman and Greek world. However evil Christian so-called historians would deny any influence on Christianity because they want to deny that Christianity was hotch-potch of various pre-dating religions including religions from as far away land as India. All the stories in Christian doctrines are nothing but redesigned copies of earlier religions. Buddha's mother saw Bodhisattva entering her womb and in turn she giving virgin birth to the Buddha. This was stolen by early Christian writers to invent a same figure of their own. While there may be some fundamental differences between Jesus-ism and Buddhism like so-called crucifixion of Jesus and importance of God but what about other not so central teachings of both the religions. The fact is Buddhist thought greatly influenced early Christian writers but because any land west of India is full of evil minds (proved by existence of modern day secret societies) so they created their own imaginary stories to push their world domination agenda. (Islam also came out of such evil mind) So while many of the teachings of Buddhism looked appealing to them but Buddhist doctrine of non-theism was not so useful for their agenda. So they removed that part and retained other ones so as to make it look like it is original. So shameful. In fact there is no evidence for existence of Jesus and all so-called evidence comes from evil and biased Christian historians whose very credibility is in doubt.

thread_title:  Buddhist influences on early Christianity 

message: This article needs to be re-written.  It currently is written as a Buddhism vs Christianity article with little discussion of actual influence or areas of similarity.  I will make a rewrite of the lead in the next week or so.  Any other editors willing to add content or constructive feedback would be greatly appreciated.
I intend to write the lead starting with similarities and the items that these two religions share that are not common throughout all religions.  I am wide open to suggestions for improvement.  Lipsquid (talk) 02:17, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you very much for the feedback, I guess this needs to go in my sandbox for a rewrite section by section.  I agree the article is much too "rejection" focused when some similarities are obvious and there is documented historical cultural exchange between India, the Middle East and Eastern Europe in the pre-Christian period.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Today I came across the idea that Buddha prophesied the coming of Jesus. I'm no expert and doubt the sources meets WP standards, but if it's legit, it seems like it should be part of this article. The original source seems to be an excerpt published by a Thai website 2003 from District Headman – the Religious Encyclopedia Volume 23, stored at Wat PhraSing.
