Quote from An Introduction to Buddhism
An Introduction to Buddhism: Teachings, History, and Practices
by Peter Harvey
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 1990 396 pagesLike Christianity, Buddhism had a noble ethical system, but it appeared to be a religion of self-help, not dependent on God or priests. Like science, it seemed to be based on experience, saw the universe as ruled by law, and did not regard humans and animals as radically distinct. Yet for those with a taste for mysticism, it offered more than science. (p. 300)
