Or just none of my business?

Sure I will leave it.

We do differ.

Because I have found Buddhist teachings like 1 hand clapping.

For me it is like grasping the wind with your hand.
You open your hand and nothing.

Plus I see Buddhist don't believe in God or a Supreme Deity.
But yet they talk as if they do.
Very confusing to me.
I had to leave it alone too.

That is alright by me to differ. I do make attempts to understand where a person is coming from. At the end of the day I will have respect for the Buddhists, and you.

Plus I should add that I practice a form of Native American religion mixed with Christianity. So my training and teachings have come by extended periods of time in nature.
Never a book.(until the last 5 to 7 years) So I am behind in all the traditional reading materials. My first Bible had many pages missing from starting fires with.
The past few years I have been kept out of my beloved mountains do to health situations(Big BOO HOO Pity Party for me)( Okay party's over)
So if I don't get what your saying it maybe because I don't get what your saying.
Since this thread is on different forms of Christianity, I figured I would let you know that
there are a small number of mixed beliefs that really don't fit in any traditional branch of Christianity.

Seems there's no ' Universal ' definition to what a Christian is....
Hence an estimated 30.000 denominations.

There has not been a change in 'what is a Christian' since 325 AD or CE, that
I am aware of.
You must believe all of this: The Nicene Creed

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,

and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

I personally don't think there is traditional Christianity , that's why we have so many Denominations. Diversity is beautiful, we are all different why try and squash us all all into the same box.

God and Buddhism..... Some Buddhists do believe in a God.
One hand clapping....... One hand can't clap, simple.
Grasping the wind... .. This is an illusion as is nothingness.

I hope you can get back to your beloved mountains you must miss them terribly

Buddhism came from Hinduism.

Their Supreme God is Trimuriti.
