I understand why you find Buddism interesting and relevant and also understand that "the Buddha" never called himself such. I am to understand that the Buddhas teachings are to be only a raft and you are solely responsible for your life, having that thrown in the face of people who seem to desire being slaves... is it any wonder you get the above claim of prophet for the Buddha?
