“Then they aren’t Christians”

They are devoted Christians. You don;t understand the philosophy of Buddhism. There’s really no significant problems involved between the two. One is religion, the other is a philosophy about life.

I think it is you, or your Buddhist friends, that don’t understand Christianity.

Christians believe in one God and the immortal soul. Buddhists believe in no God and no soul.

The goal of Chritianity is eternal life. The goal of Buddhism is to escape the endless cycle of death and rebirth and become one with nothingness.

Arguing with a fundamentalist is like trying to argue with a liberal.
