Honest and unflinching, Without Buddha I Could Not Be a Christian narrates each spiritual dilemma that Knitter has struggled with and explains how a Buddhist worldview has allowed him to resolve each one. From the "petitioning" nature of Christian prayer to how Christianity views life after death, Knitter argues that a Buddhist standpoint can help inspire a more person-centered conception of Christianity, where individual religious experience comes first, and liturgy and tradition second.

From Christianity to Buddhism and Back
Revisado: 09-22-19
This book has completely changed my outlook on religion. Raised as a Christian, I have long struggled to reconcile my Christian beliefs with my understanding of science and the behavior of my fellow Christians. That struggle eventually led to my leaving the church and exploring other religions, including Judaism, Islam, Taoism, and eventually Buddhism. I embraced Buddhism, but still felt uneasy with the implications of that relative to my childhood Christianity. This book has put to rest all those concerns, showing me how my two different "religions" are really one and the same. While I no longer call myself either a Christan or a Buddhist, I'm now comfortable with where I am in my desire to connect with the ultimate reality.
