I LIKE what their scriptures say a lot more. I am biased in THAT regard only. I could no more prove their mumbo jumbo than yours. But I HATE your Bible. I like parts of it as literature but I HATE the mind(s) behind it. It is awful. It elevates ignorance (and you are damned for knowledge- because original sin is the result of the quest for knowledge); it's brutal- this "loving" God sends his own son down to be murdered by ignorant people (forgive them father they KNOW not what they do)- and it rewards and encourages ignorance and blind faith. Buddhism, on the other hand, encourages exploration- scientific and philosophic. And it promotes peace and tranquility.

I agree you can't prove diddly squat about any religions- but in qualitative terms, if I ever HAVE to sign up for a religion, I'll sign up as a Buddhist.
