Don't change the subject. I said Buddha believed in sin too, though he didn't call it that. Furthermore, he claimed there was this non-materialist supernatural thing called karma that punished it via reincarnation of souls.

IOW he believed in supernatural things. Indeed, such things are key to the religion he inaguarated.

In pointing out these facts, I in no way embrace Buddhism. I am merely pointing out that YOU don't understand and completely misrepresent the religion you're talking about.

there was no supernatural ascribed to the karma either,

Sorry, but you're wrong and foolishly wrong. It's entirely a supernatural concept.
