Since the point was about the falsehood of your statement, and not any trait of Buddhism, this is a nonsequitur. It's irrelevant. A red herring.
False on both counts.
Let's examine them more closely.
"The genetic fallacy is the act of rejecting or accepting an argument on the basis of its origin rather than its content. Under the genetic fallacy, we judge a claim by paying too much attention to its source or history, even though this criticism is irrelevant to the truth of the claim."

Citing Christ on Christianity or Buddha on Buddhism is not a Genetic Fallacy.
