What lies at the heart of Christianity is the peace of knowing Jesus has given us full and unimpeded access to the Father without requiring a priesthood, rituals, good works, or anything other than accepting the free gift of salvation. This is not in the least incompatible with the Eightfold Path, and in fact compliments it perfectly.

Bosh

How ironic. A Buddhist would say that Buddhists and Christians live in the same world, and it is reasonable and correct for them to live in peace. It is only those poor souls who damn themselves with self-inflicted blind obedience to pointless, narrow traditions of men that make peaceful co-existence a challenge instead of the status quo.

Double bosh.
