You are kidding me. He's a Christian so obviously he needs to know stuff about Jesus. Even I know stuff about Christianity, Islam and Judaism without needing to be a believer. As for Buddhism, all it takes is a very small effort to do an internet search, that the 4 noble truths and the 8 fold paths are the basics. Dun believe? Just type in "basics of Buddhism" in google search and see what it turns up.

But he has definitely not lived up to his own preach about the ethos of Christianity.

You probably don't need Christ because you are so (self) righteous wor. 

Christ came to this world to die for and save sinners, and not such a (self) righteous man like you. 

I have never claimed to be perfect. You are using me to judge Christ and the Salvation which is still being offered to you even though you are so erm.... (self) righteous that you think Google can teach you the TRUTH. Google can teach you 4 NT and 8FP after I first wrote these but the Word of God? 

No man...you need the Holy Spirit to unlock the truths as revealed in the Word of God. Without the guiding Hand of the Holy Spirit, you can read the Bible a hundred times and Google a thousand, it will only seem like - in your words - "a grandmother's story" ..  

God gave you free will. It would be foolish for me to argue with you against your God given free will. Humbly accept or arrogantly reject, the decision is for you and you alone to make.
