Do Buddhists believe in God?

[Anonymous]

So I’m in the process of finding what religion is right for me, and I’ve been watching videos from the Buddhism in English Channel on YouTube and I’m finding it quite interesting, but I have only been following for a few days so not very long,

But I believe in god and Jesus heaven and hell mainly because my Nan did and I spent my whole life with her, she was catholic though, I’ve never been assigned a religion hence why I’m considering one,

But I was wondering do Buddhists believe in god and Jesus heaven and hell?

Not from Buddhism itself, no, but the faith is VERY tolerant, and there are Buddhists who do. Buddhism says you can be a Buddhist and still be a Christian, Muslim, etc. I'd argue that it doesn't really work the other way, but it's not for me to tell people they can't have certain beliefs.

I don’t have a religion currently, I was never christened or baptised or anything, and now I want to choose what faith I want and I was looking into Buddhism.

Not.

I live in a Buddhist dominated country. This ''religion'' (sic!) is rather a variation of autism, than a 'spiritual 'way of life''. But it's harmless in some way; even the basic concept is agreeable to some extent - but a God as a superiour being isn't present, unless we tolerate the arrogance that a human can achieve ''godliness'' by not doing anything of relevance.

Buddhism doesn't believe in god, heaven or hell. They believe that through meditation one can achieve enlightenment. They believe that there is an energy that the universe was build on and the same energy flows through every human beings.

I think they believe in a higher power of some type.
