Just one more thing. When you're talking about specific beliefs such as a belief in Jesus, Allah, Krishna, Buddha or any other religion then I believe one can definitely debate. I was speaking more about the existence of some kind os Supreme Being in the most general sense.

Leave Buddha out of future comparative analogies please.

He's not a God nor a prophet. To "believe" in Buddha is the same as "believing" in Thomas Jefferson.

They were both men, and only men, and they are now both dead.

Buddha was a moral philosopher who presented a brilliant way of life to avoid suffering. That's all.
