do they even know Buddha lived several centuries before Christ, or do they believe nothing existed before Jesus was born in a manger?

Yes, I know of Buddha's end. Note that I speak of when he "lived". I do not mention "death" in connection with him.

Answer 1

no we don't forget about Rev 21:8
I never expected to find Buddha in heaven....
everyone falls short of the Glory and Holiness of God....therefore they need a savior...now if they choose to reject Gods provision for them then they will pay the price for rejecting God.....now those who died before the provision was made complete they had another law to go by.....that is between them and God....He is not unjust......we have such limited knowledge of Gods ways ...yet we like to think we know just as much as our creator does and then we become so arrogant as to think we can speak against the creator of all things has if we were His equal....one needs to be careful when speaking against Gods knowledge and love and provision for us....

Answer 2

Buddha has ceased to exist, when he ended his desire and suffering he destroyed the part of him that anchored him in this samsara. His "soul", for lack of a better word, is gone. He is gone. He is not in heaven or hell, he does not exist any longer.

Answer 3

Hmmmm. I guess I just don't have an answer. If there is a heaven, then yes, he is there. But that he doesn't believe he has an eternal soul, it gives me just one more thing to sort through...thanks alot friend! ;-)

Answer 4

HELLO Jesus went down to hell and got the good people out of there. Actually some people believe that they went to limbo, but others say it was hell or purgatory.
