Amidism

Myself, I have been involved with essentially two Buddhist temples, the Wat Yanviriya, a Thai temple in East Vancouver, BC, and the International Buddhist Temple, a Chinese temple on Lulu Island, BC. The latter was on Steveston Highway. The former was Theravāda Buddhism, and the latter was Pure Land Buddhism, also known as Amidism. I started Buddhism with Zen, many years previously.

In Buddhist cosmology, there are several heavens and several hellworlds. I am thinking that our Earth could possibly be just one of the hellworlds. Baptist Protestantism is similar to Pure Land Buddhism or Amidism, because they both require only faith on a superperson, either Jesus or Amitābha Buddha, respectively. Of course, both Buddhism and Christianity have other different sects. Other sects of Buddhism do not really require faith on a superperson.
