Christianity and Buddhism

Similarities

  • Both teach that you should be kind to others
  • Value humans as the most important of all living things
  • Guidelines/Teachings to advise you how to live a good life
  • A holy life has to be lived in order to achieve the final goal
  • Killing/Taking life is bad in both

Differences

  • Buddhism doesnt have a heaven as such
  • Buddhism does not have a God
  • the 8 fold path is more of a guide than strict instructions
  • In christianity life is given value because humans are made in the image of god, in buddhism human life is valuable because it offers the chance to reach enlightenment
