And, by the way, as a Buddhist, I protest being lumped in with those who do not believe in God. My God just doesn't go by the name of "Jesus."

Like I said, it's more complicated than that. Some Buddhists believe in God, some don't. I used it to meet lookout123's "some eastern philosophies" quote. The difference is probably countered by some of the "Random other" which I gave to the "God" side, but in the end it doesn't affect the argument much.
