How does Buddhism differ from other religions?

Buddhism has no caste systems such as Hinduism. It teaches us that being a good or bad person does not depend on our social status nor life depends on what religion we believe in. What Buddhism teaches is love, simple love of all creatures without any exception. In Buddhism, you never asked to believe in Buddha, and Buddha never force someone to believe him or in what he has taught. everything about Buddhism is your choice. Buddhism has no god or prophets. Your trip to enlightenment is up to you to                                make although Buddha and his teachings provide all the guidelines you will need.
