for what reference do you quote that Buddhism as being a non evil religion, to my knowledge Buddhism teaches enlightenment through self sacrifice and suffering. All religion has a degree of prejudice against non beleiver's. Depending on what religion depends on the degree of prejudice, it also depends on the teaching, with point to reference resently a family member staying with musilim friends over night during this month of ramadan was asked by her hosts what she would like cooked for breakfast in the morning, the family member told them that they didnt have to cook anything as she relised that the hosts family will be fasting and out of respect would fast as well. the reply was simple, "Being muslim does not mean that we are unable to prepare food for our non muslim guest in fact it is better credit for us if we offer the hospitality and resist the temptation as it truley shows how strong we are within our faith." it has always been a philosophy of mine that religion is only the teaching, Faith is something that truly comes from within and something that can be practised without religion.
