I know of several Muslims who converted to Christianity, but no Buddhists that have so something in the Muslim religion must have an aspect of truth that allows them to see the truth of Christ more easily than other non-Christian and Jewish religions. That's gnosticism.
All men are equally fallen. The length of the walk towards Christ and the quality of the pavement is not what matters; only the destination.

No, gnosticism is the belief that among other thing, salvation is based on secret knowledge. There’s nothing secret in what Muslims believe, well, most Muslims. The point is that some have been given a gift of understanding that others have not been given, keeping in mind that to whom much is given, much is expected.
