Buddhism was founded by Buddha on his journey to find the answer to questions he had after he left his temple. On his adventure he wasn’t trying to create a new religion at the beginning. People started to listen to what his sayings and believed in them. The people then began to follow him and a religion started.

3. Christianity Believe in God Believe Jesus died for our sins
Believe the readings of the Bible
Go to church to worship God and Jesus
God created our world we live on and everything that lives on it. To prove he exists he sent his one and only son to earth to spread the word of god. Jesus later then died on the cross for our sins and was buried. Then he raised again on Easter. People followed Jesus and listened to what he had to say people that listened wrote stories and created the bible.

4. Differences Between the Two
Buddhism believe that there is nirvana
Buddhism believe that reincarnation is the path to nirvana
Christianity believe in Heaven

Buddhism and Christianity have many differences between the two. Buddhism was found by a man who just left his palace and say a man suffering. He had questions about life and set out on a journey to find the answers to them. Christianity was found when God sent his one and only son Jesus to the Earth to tell the people of Earth of the word of his father God and how he created all living things on the Earth.
