sparebox2 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Lord Buddha is born way way before Jesus. Is there a possibility that Jesus could be a descendent of Lord Buddha, however remote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerata Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 It's highly unlikely since the Buddha only had one son who joined the monkhood early in his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all God's children... so brothers I guess change it to... 'we are all natures children.... so all related' ...would be more like the truth.
