Hello Sir, I am a Buddhist and i don't believe the fantasy written in the books. Things like the divine speaking to the queen, flowers appeared from nowhere when the Buddha was born. Those are exaggerated claims. I don't think most sensible people who follow it believe in that. The Buddha has thought us first to observe what he has thought and only if it agrees with us, then practise it. Nowhere does he say "follow me because i am the truth" . What it teaches in a nutshell is to live a righteous life and to finally be free from all suffering. Doesn't imply that one finds eternal paradise. One just seizes to exist. I am fine with anyone calling it "nonsense" or "bullxxxx" :-)
"No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path" - Gautama Buddha
