Christianity gave the world hospitals and universities. It abolished slavery, both in aniquity and again in more modern times. It brought literacy and education to the masses. It has transformed millions of lives from liabilities to human society to assets. As an example it transformed John Newton, a slave trader who abused his female slaves, into an abolitionist and the author of the hymn, Amazing Grace.

Other Christians wrote the words: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Now I don't know whether similar things can be said of Buddhism. But if it can, here is your opportunity.
