Fear? Of what?

They aren't the religions teaching that the Big Sky Daddy will smite anyone who doesn't follow all the rules.

So's the belief that you can do whatever the hell you want as long as you believe in Jesus and still go to Heaven.

What's the belief that a head demon is trying to trick you, or that evil spirits hang around waiting for a chance to take over your body, or that calling on a particular deity will save you from demons?

There's nothing in Buddhism that comes close to that level of ignorant superstition.

Right, the eightfold path is based on fear, unlike Hell. Dumbass

The Buddha proved that a mortal human can attain enlightenment.

Heaven and Hell are the superstitious junk.

It's interesting that we all seem to be able to spot the flaws in everyone else's beliefs while firmly advocating our own.
As a species, I think we may be insane.

Yeah, I could have just said pot meet kettle, but I felt momentarily pompous.

Hinduism is possibly a survival of the ancient Indo-European religion, and might be distantly related to the ancient Greek religion (though only very vaguely). A lot of it also has to do with an early law code that, among other things, put the caste system into place.

Buddhism is essentially Hinduism with everything except the cosmology removed and an emphasis on social justice and enlightenment. Of the world's major religions, Buddhism is by far the least looney, with liberal Judaism as a distant second.

Fear and ignorance? Yeah, about that...

"Hinduism, buddhist and such are superstitious junk. Designed out of fear and ignorance."

I agree, but so is every other religion that you didn't mention.

Isn't Buddhism one of the only major religions without a supernatural component? So how would it be "superstitious"?
