Christ was a rebel, Buddha a conformist.

Christ took action, Buddha sat cross legged.

Christ changed things, Buddha wanted ever lasting sameness.

Budhha sought to extinguish emotions, Christ set things on fire.

Christ was not celibate, Buddha was and this further cast down women as objects and seducers.

I would not get hung up on the fact that Buddha is more ancient than Christ. That is like saying Plato was smarter than Aristotle because he was the teacher of Aristotle or Aristotle was a greater warrior than Alexander the Great because Aristotle tutored Alexander. I met a kid I've known for years who works at McDonald's at the bank the other day. While we were waiting we compared stocks we both own and it turns out this young naive child out performed me by several hundred times.
