Q: Do you think that the Guatama Buddha, who did not recognize the existance of a Supreme Being / God, yet who has, by his enlightened teachings, positively effected and affected billions of persons since he proposed the same, who judged no one and treated all with loving kindness and compassion will be rewarded with paradise on the Day of the Final Judgment? If so, please, why? If not so, please, why? Your thoughtful, serious replies will be most appreciated. angbil 19: a kind answer, be well. jellycat: you wrote well, honeslty and kindly, too. (Koran = Qur'an). Those who did not accept the faith of the various religions are called non-bliever, kaffirs and schismatics (some, like myself are simply called "Buddhist", smile) thank you both.
A: I believe all who are good and kind will have paradise. Jesus said in his house are many mansions. Buddha would not have had anyone worship him as many do. If they follow his teachings for being kind and having charity for all then that is a good thing.
