text: there are no criticisms for buddhism? i just read a thread asking whether atheists had any criticisms about buddhism.  from what i read there was pretty much little criticism offered against buddhism.  please no "buddhism sucks" responses and i would appreciate honest answers.  if there is really very little or no criticism that can be presented regarding buddhism just say "no criticisms" or something similar.  thanks in advance. i think that there are relatively few criticisms for buddhism because it is such a relaxed religion...buddhism is much less strict than christianity or islam, for example.  the riles that believers must follow are less intense, and buddhists really do not judge people of different faiths.
