He was also born to a "holy spirit", had disciples, and so on.
Such interesting similarities, when Buddha was around prior to Jesus...

Sounds like a clear case of academic misconduct to me.

Now it is getting clearer. Buddha and Jesus have the same driving force--the Word, just like Enoch, Elijah, John the Baptist, to name a few. Each one had his own God's purpose on earth. Buddha opened the consciousness of Jesus during the 18 years that Jesus disappeared from the Bible. (The Lost Years of Jesus, by Mark and Elizabeth Prophet). The Word is in the first chapter of John's Gospel. This Word is in every man. The Word makes the difference between us and the dust. Unfortunately, most of us have lost the ability to listen from within. As Jesus said: "The Holy Spirit is like the wind, you do not where it comes from, and you do not where it is going."

Those stories are metaphors, I should know I am a Buddhist. Buddha was divine in no way, he was a model for us and now he is dead and gone. He was not born to a "holy spirit", he was the son of an Indian lord.

Who said the almighty had only 1 son? .... Why not Jesus and Buddha both walk on water? What if they were 1 in the same? The "Holy Spirit" was sent out over the WHOLE earth.

Do you have a textual content textile that the gospel writers copied from? Parallels of function or plot does not plagiarism make. for sure, if Mark had copyright over the textual content textile written in his call, than Matthew and Luke plagiarized his textual content textile. we've those texts to benefit with one yet another. What textual content textile are you evaluating to the Gospels? And did Mark, Matthew, Luke plagiarize in simple terms as badly from this text as did John, even nonetheless verbally John is extremely different from the different 3. in case you have criticisms against the Christian gospels, enable us to hearken to them. yet a minimum of make the main of a minimum of sparkling thinking.

How about David Blaine, he levitates and he is just like you and me. Gandi faster for 40 days too. In India there is a certain 'saint' Sai Baba, who brought back people from the dead, is seen at multipile places at the same time. And many, many more such 'Godly' acts. What of these people?

Trying not to offend any christians out there right now, but...
Most of the text in the bible cannot be verified or traced back to an original source. It's a lot of hearsay.
As in the rest of history, documentation like this is prone to exaguration.
Buddha and buddhism is older, and it very well could be that some parts of this "story" have been copied.

Buddha used specially designed flippers to pull off that trick. Jesus just knew where the rocks were.

Jesus was a Buddhist.
Buddha taught Jesus how to walk on water.
This is why we don't hear much of Jesus' life btwn 12 years old til the time he was 30. He was hanging out with the Buddhists.
