Buddha is fat in symbolism only and not in reality. Being fat is associated with ABUNDANCE and PROSPERITY! It could also mean FAT IN WISDOM!

That's why Buddha achieved ENLIGHTENMENT because he did not take himself seriously. He died laughing and may you DIE SMILING!

what are your basis if its not original? why would you say PAGANISM? what are your basis? try to disprove it

I want you to study this book objectively "The Jesus Mysteries" and are you aware that there are some priests already who don't believe in Jesus' birth (December 25) and the doctrine of HELL?

Let's go back to my source:


The Jesus Mysteries: Was the "Original Jesus" a Pagan God? is a 1999 book by Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy that claims to reconstruct the true origins of Christianity. It relies heavily on the Gnostic gospels found at Nag Hammadi. Prior to publishing Jesus Mysteries, Freke and Gandy had collaborated in writing books on mysticism and paganism. The authors suggest that a number of pagan mystery religions, such as those of Osiris, Dionysus, Attis, and Mithras, were all manifestations of a single cult of a dying and rising "godman" myth, whom they call Osiris-Dionysus. The authors propose that Jesus did not really exist, but was instead a syncretic re-interpretation of the fundamental pagan "godman" by the Gnostics, who were the original sect of Christianity. Orthodox Christianity, according to them, was not the predecessor to Gnosticism, as almost all scholars believe, but a later outgrowth that rewrote history in order to make literal Christianity appear to predate the Gnostics. They describe their theory as the "Jesus Mysteries thesis."

NO. I am just a drop of the entire ocean (Buddha and Jesus) of wisdom! I am still learning!
