A God of Buddhism?
In religions such as Catholicism and Judaism there is a belief in one god. In religions like what was practiced in Ancient Greece, there was a belief in multiple gods. Buddhism falls into neither of these categories. Buddhists do not believe in a god. When a religion doesn't believe in a god, it is called atheism. Buddhism is atheist because Buddha believed buddhists don't have to rely on one god to help them. Also, Buddha believed that there is no reasonable explanation to explain the creation and existence of a god. Lastly, Buddha believed that the whole idea of having a god is unnecessary. So this is why the Buddhist religion does not have a god.
