Anything is great if you hand wave the horrible away.

And anything is horrible if you handwaved the great. That's why Buddha took the middle path.

Are we talking about Buddhism or Christianity here?

Can you prove that Christianity isn't the result of some middle eastern Jew learning about Buddhism on the Silk Road and trying to translate it into middle eastern Jew?

Then it was co-opted by people who used it as cover for systematic sexual abuse and murder of entire groups of people and is currently being used to attempt to convert entire countries into dystopian theocracies?

That’s one hell of a game of telephone, then.

2000 years will do that. It's a sad fact that any prestigious positions of power, especially those implicitly ordained by God™, attract narcissistic sociopaths.
