Buddha was about a way of life. He did not advocate for a set of theological beliefs or heaven and hell. He did not worship a supreme being.

True, buddhism is considered an eastern religion by many folks. I don't follow it religiously. But I do think most of what I have read about the buddhist make sense.

Also, in my statement, I was trying to seperate the "leaders" of the churches from the people of the churches. These are two very different things.

Thomas Jefferson would not attent a church meeting or bible study if a minister, priest, monk, etc. was leading the group. However, he would go if it were just the people.
