I found Buddhism to be more existential in character and not as concerned with doctrines to the extent I had encountered in my Christian experience. Buddhism understands the symbolic and provisional nature of human thought. The principle of not being attached to views and the understanding of egoism and delusion all gave me a different perspective on religious phenomena and experience.
