theravada monk about christianity same thing

shanyin

hello all. I have been talking to a Christian friend and I wanted to show him a video I found about a Theradin monk I found on this site talking about Christianity and Buddhism being 'the same thing'. He was talking about the story about adam and eve and the dualistic thinking of the tree of good and evil. could anyone show me this? i cant find it.

the dharma and christianism are not the same thing, even if there's some tangial similarities.

This a great truth and one to be celebrated. They can be complementary (although all-too-rarely complimentary), adding to the breadth and depth of our View. A field growing flowers of only one type is horticulture, not gardening. Me, I love my garden - even tho' I owe great debt to the horticulturalists.
