The gospel stories, parables and teachings came from Buddhism and that is in fact where Christianity comes from.

I humbly disagree, and I think any one who has studied the Bible would also disagree

I think if you will study Buddhism you will be shocked at some of the things that are alike. The saying of Christ and Buddha and there views and teachings and parables.Some things may be different but as you go along I think you will find even the differences are not that much. And then you make a study of other religions that were current at that time and you make a deeper understanding. Carpenters “Pagan Christs” and Graves “Twelve crucified Saviour's” both give an excellent view of the similarities of the mythologies. They will give you an eye of what to look for when you examine things more closely. If you do not look further than these excellent books it probably will not be meaningful.You have to take a good look at them individually. I spent years doing it. Boy I thought this thread was dead a long time ago!
