"What is true of Christianity is equally true of Buddhism. [The Buddha was amiable and enlightened; on his deathbed he laughed at his disciples for supposing that he was immortal. But] the Buddhist priesthood - as it exists, for example, in Tibet - has been obscurantist, tyrannous, and cruel in the highest degree." - "Has Religion Made Useful Contributions to Civilization?"
