yes, buddists can, have, and do become christians. And they are not forced into it, either.

IF a buddist turns right into a Christain, he then is a Christian and not a buddist. Judges 10:13 yet ye have forsaken me, and served different gods: wherefore i will furnish you not greater. Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no different gods earlier me. Exodus 23:13 And in all issues that I truthfully have reported unto you be circumspect: and make no point out of the call of different gods, neither enable or not that is heard out of thy mouth.

They can. There's really not much conflict between the two belief systems.
When the first Christian missionaries came into parts of the world where Buddhism was prevalent, the Buddhists of course liked the message and liked Jesus, and called themselves Christian Buddhists. Jesus is also considered a bodhisattva in Buddhism, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a Buddhist who doesn't respect him greatly.

You will find in the greater equation that many people on Earth share the same fate: we are born, we live and we die. We are one because our life experience makes us so. No matter what we believe or how we are raised, we are all human, and we are all struggling with our inner demons, and we are all trying to make sense of our world.
No matter who you are or where you are from or what you do, there is both strength and weakness in you, there is material for hero and material for villain. Pick which one, quick!

yes,some, cause' they go to churches to make friends and find a gfd or bfd, or have connection to running business or find a job from christians.These people can't be named "buddhist" or "christians",they just know how to use the resource,even holy religions.
