Buddhism is not the same from country to country and sometimes even within one country. Many Buddhists would say that Buddhism is a philosophy, and not a religion. Some forms of Buddhism do not recognize any deity or deities. Some do. In China there is a melding of Taoism and Buddhism in many areas. In my opinion Jainism is a religion, and very restricted in its scope. Buddhism is more suited to the open-minded. Again, that is my own opinion.
