Your ignorance of Buddhism is showing. The fat Buddhas of Chinese restaurants is what your imagining? First, for an agrarian people, fat is a luxury. Nobody is fat unless they are wealthy. That is a symbol - it is only repulsive to you because you were born into times where people can be thin voluntarily and not risk starvation when the crop fails. Second, I doubt you will ever find me relating a single story of a single crazed cleric and saying that is representative of all. Now I did relate a story a month or two back about a priest who crashed his car into an abortion clinic, swinging his ax and having to be repelled by a shotgun. This is nuts. But not unheard of. Despite that, I will not be asserting that Christianity is causing this. A certain type of Christian is capable of doing this though. But that isn't what we are discussing here.

A preacher went to a Bhuddist's house and cursed the Bhuddist altar at the request of the wife who had converted to Christianity. The husband who was a priest went berserk and would make it a habit of chasing his wife around with a knife. To think they were both already in their 80's. Well the man completely lost his senses and was often found in the city streets just wandering around with a dazed look on his face, he died less than a year after the ordeal. I'm certain that after 80 plus years of being so steeped in Bhuddism proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that your state of "enlightment" is of the devil. Got a source for that story? or Is it hearsay or Didja make it up?
