    This is an interesting way of looking at these religions. From my limited knowledge it seems like a good high-level summary.

    It could be interesting to expand this to include Buddhism (Hong Kong cinema?), Hinduism (Bollywood?), Baháʼí (?), cults, etc. Not sure if the metaphor will stretch so far…

      That’s like comparing Star Wars, Star Trek, and Stargate my dude.

        The Buddha would be like that time you found some kung-fu movie and checked Wikipedia to find out that you just watched the 32nd in the 43 movie long franchise. All with the same lead. Then remarked to yourself “how many times will it take before the criminal-ninjas-drug dealers learn to not randomly kill someone this guy likes?”

        Really. He has a book about him that is slightly over twice the word count of the King James Bible.
