"Christianity was young ..." You are mistaken in your dating Christianity. Judaism, which is quite old, speaks very clearly of the coming Messiah. Christianity did not start in the 1 century AD, it was clearly foretold even before Moses (i.e. book of Job and Genesis). THere is no historical evidence that the writers of the new testament were exposed to Buddhaism at all. You can claim thievery as you wish. You would never compel an impartial jury.

RE: I would be more impressed if you had brought up the contradiction of the caste I was not really trying to debate you in a which religion is good, or correct. If I were to attack the Hindu belief, I would go for the jugular. Not the caste system, as immoral as it is, but the entire concept of karma. You will note that charity did not spring forth from Hinduism. Charity, interferes with karma. Go to India and witness the mass starvation and malnutrition. But, let us not digress into a religious debate. Just admit that in following the Hindu faith, you believe all others to be false (at least the monotheistic ones). Since they are contradictory, you have no choice.
