Excerpt from Buddhism These difficulties, and those who feel them, seem to fall into two groups. There are those, in the first place, who fancy that Christianity was very largely indebted in early days to Buddhist influences; and then there are those who trouble very little about this first difficulty (and indeed, there is very little to be said for it) but who do feel that Buddhism, in whole or in part, offers a very reasonable attitude towards some of the problems of life.
