Why Buddha and not God? ( Archived) (89)

Oct 15, 2021 5:13 PM CST Why Buddha and not God?
Buddhists do not believe in any kind of deity or god, although there are supernatural figures who can help or hinder people on the path towards enlightenment. Most refer to Siddhartha Gautama was an Indian prince in the fifth century B.C.E. ... as the Buddha Siddhartha Gautama Buddha taught the Four Noble Truths.
They are the truth of suffering, the truth of the cause of suffering, the truth of the end of suffering, and the truth of the path that leads to the end of suffering.
However, Buddhist objects and teaching uncovered on what was the Silk Road were carbon dated as over 20,000 years old.
An Asian and African studies blog link:

These 28 Buddhas are: Ta?ha?kara Buddha, Medha?kara Buddha, Sara?kara Buddha, Dipankara Buddha, Ko?dañña Buddha, Ma?gala Buddha, Sumana Buddha, Revata Buddha, Sobhita Buddha, Anomadassi Buddha, Paduma Buddha, Narada Buddha, Padumuttara Buddha, Sumedha Buddha, Sujata Buddha, Piyadassi Buddha, Atthadassi Buddha, Dhammadassi Buddha, Siddhattha Buddha, Tissa Buddha, Phussa Buddha, Vipassi Buddha, Sikhi Buddha, Vessabhu Buddha, Kakusandha Buddha, Ko?agamana Buddha, Kassapa Buddha, ending with Gautama Buddha. Presented below are illustrations of some of these 28 Buddhas from Burmese manuscripts.

The Buddha lineage begins with a Buddha called Ta?ha?kara. Ta?ha?kara Buddha was born as a son of King Sunandha and Queen Sunandha in the city of Puppavadi. He attained Enlightenment under a Rukkaththana tree. Ta?ha?kara Buddha, Medha?kara Buddha, Sara?kara Buddha and Dipankara Buddha were born in the same aeon (kalpa).
(kalpa is equal to 4.32 billion years)

No one can be real happy without God or without believing and without obeying him.
That short happyness if they have will dry or end as river without water !
So there are two manner of living: to live by believing and obeying God or not believing and disobeying God.
Who make people to be unbelievers in God?
it is devil satan that fights to make people unbelievers.
So he give doubts and wrong teaching and bad thoughts to men against God!
So there is no solution without God.people need God.
without God, comes misery and sicknesses and suffer and finally death and hell !
so those who don,t repent of their sins and evil deeds and who don,t improve goes in hell.

starrayfil: Butcher559; You are wrong! God is not evil but all good, so you blasphemy God and truth!
You are filled with hate against christians thats why you hate also God and Jesus!
Repent and improve because that hate can drive you to hell !
You don,t know the law of God which govern heavens and planets and all things!
So learn truth of God and you will be saved.Don,t hate God as Buddhist do !
and don,t hate christians but love them!
Hey Starray, no need to get upset about a little religious conversation bro..
I hate Christians just the same as any other religion and that hate is very little if anything, i do like some things from Buddhist, Christians and Sumerian culture..
Sumerian's were scum of the earth to Hebrews/Jews/Christians, Sumerian stories are what the bible is based on Starray;; wave

@Starrayfil and others: 1.Buddhism originated approxm. 560 BEFORE Christ!! 2.The Buddhistic dharma, the eightfold path to enlightenment is strikingly similar to Christ's Sermon on the Mount, more similarities can be found f.i.Christianity versus the Jewish religion, later seen with the Islam. All this indicating that religions have been influenced by others religions and philosophies. Similarly, Buddhism has been influenced by Taoism which is a philosophy based on nature. Buddhism is a way of life, a philosophy, Christianity is a religion!! A big difference.
3. During the time of Christ there were also other religions that preached the same values as Jezus. They did not stay long as they focussed on the wrong groups of the population. Jesus Christ came up for the poor, disabled and outcasted people. This made his message to become the greatest religion on earth today.
4. Why can only the humans, a very violent and homicidal species only deserve God's heaven and other creatures are just seen as minor and tools. scold
Buddhism just invites, religions try to convert.
