Jesus is God -- Gautama was not.
Jesus did not commit any crime -- Gautama would have been arrested over here.
Jesus had no biological children -- Gautama was what we call a 'deadbeat dad'.
I'm sure you see the differences.

That's the $64,000.00 word; isn't it, Nathan?Can you provide some compelling extrabiblical evidence?

Some fathers are abusive drunks. Some are not. And I have met people who detested both parents.
What I am saying is that I have observed in my life that many of "God's children" are abused, starved, debauched and corrupted, and the supposedly omiscient, omnipotent and benevolent daddy does not protect or provide for them.
My relationships with my own parents are moot, inasmuch as they are both long dead.
Funny, it seems to me like He never forsook His mom. His dying wish was for John to take care of her. How bad is that?Well, there's that moment where Jesus rejects his family in front of an entire crowd.
But I'm sure you forgot all about that while trying to bash Buddhism.
In your dreams.Life on earth started asexual, then evolved to create sexual reproduction. Humans and other complex species have always reproduced sexually.
Evidence? Several species exist that reproduce both sexually and asexually. They also exist in the genetic tree where evolution would expect them to exist.
So the first thing with the capacity for sexual reproduction didn't reproduce sexually, but asexually. Only later would sexual reproduction have begun.
Even though God set it up, does that mean it can't have a definable mechanism? Who says he didn't set it up with gravitons?
Remind me of how many people found God's family because apostles didn't put their family above God? Besides, let's face it, did they really go far? Israel isn't that big a place! Just because they didn't follow everything their family might have expected of them any more doesn't mean they didn't see them, and party...etc!? Be reasonable.Remind me how many of the apostles left their families to follow Jesus?
In your dreams.
That is not evidence of anything about the evo fables.....
Despite adaptation and survival playing a key role in the process of evolution?.... ability to adapt, and survive.
Not too hard to get back on track.Wow, this is derailed! As I posted before, science isn't judged by what it doesn't know, but by how much more we know now.
Nonsense. Absolute dreaming.Eventually, I am guessing we will be able to describe the early universe where all of the fundamental forces were unified, but that will simply beg more questions.
I'm sure this will fall dead and the thread will continue into oblivion, but it is worth a shot!
Yes, of course despite slow present evolution being dog eat dog. That is a result of sin, not evolution. The issue is not survival alone, but the laws in place for what survived!Now THERE's a compelling argument!

False. The first thing was man, and beasts, and fish, and creeping things and birds. They all started the same week. The only place it is first is in the imagination of men. All rungs of the ladder that get to the imaginary 'first thing' are faith based. You assume modern slow evolution rates, and processes, for example. That cannot be evidenced.
Nonsense. Absolute dreaming.
That is not evidence of anything about the evo fables. That is evidence that a minority of created creatures had the God given ability to adapt, and survive.

Why would you possibly think that it is nonsense? There have been hundreds of claims throughout the years that man would never understand X because it is the realm of God. And once we did understand it, the new questions created became the realm of God.
Now you say the fundamental forces are from God, but there was a time when those forces had not been identified and their effects were seen as acts of God.
Beware the God of the gaps.
