Ever notice that while there are hundreds of people who claim to be the second coming of Jesus, no one ever tries to impersonate other religious figures? Why don't we see more viariety in our second comings?

Because buddha's look is very difficult to get down, and probably not much media attention. They don't immitate mohammed, because, unlike christians, some Muslim will hunt them down and kill them for blasphemy. And finally, when someone does, it gives the media a chance to ridicule and belittle all christians for the action of one wacko.

So what are you saying that just because ppl do not claim 2 be reincarnates of Muhammad or Buddha then they are false? Does christianity even mention anywhere that caliming to be a reincarnation of jesus is a god affirming thing. What kind of question is that. For those who say that Muslims hate Jesus.. we don't get over yourself... we believe that he is a prophet and one must believe in jesus to be even considered a muslim. so stop all your nonsense and try 2 educate yourself about the religion before you start blasting false hateful statements

You should know that there are no gods/godesses in Buddhism, at all. Buddha was not a god and has never been considered one by anyone. It is illegal within the religioin to worship Buddha as a god. And since there is no god there is obviously no prophet. Anyway, I understand what you are trying to say, I just get frustrated when people say that Buddha was the god of Buddhism. Yeah, you're right, you don't see some guy impersonating Krishna everyday!

Oh boy, another brilliant one here. I wonder how Jesus would react if he knew you were putting down his brethren (Muhammad and Buddah)... I'm sure he would be very ashamed of you and want nothing to do with you. I really hope I will be in the audience watch Jesus as he denouces so many of his "followers" who call him Son of God and whatever else....

Anybody can become a Bhudda; and if I recall correctly, Muhammad doesn't have a second coming.

Because the others are false anyway. What good is it to impersonate a false prophet or false messiah ?

Everyone can believe what they want but no one is coming back. Jesus, Mohamed, Krishna, Rama, Buddha, no one is coming back. There has never been a prophet nor will there be one. It is all in what you want to believe.

Because it is yet another accurate prophecy, that many would come in Jesus name...who claim to be messengers but are wolves in sheeps clothing.

Are you sure people don't do that? And are they supposed to be coming back? It would be pointless to pretend to be someone unless they were prophesied to come back. Why would people pretend to be the second coming of Abraham Lincoln? That would just be crazy.
