does this sound freakishly close to Bhuudist theology?

"The Christian Science position on the nature of evil can be described as follows:
If there is any evil power in the world, then God cannot possess all power, and is thus not omnipotent. If God is omnipotent, evil does not exist. Christianity is incompatible with a belief in the reality of evil.
To answer the question of whether God punishes evildoers, Christian Scientists would say that the illusion of evil punishes itself. As long as a person continues to act evilly, desires to do so, or does not forgive him/herself or others, suffering will be the result."

i'm not saying it came from Bhuudism. they think alike though. Bhuudist's beleive that everything is not real. it's imagined by us. we are all one. a small drop in the ocean. they beleive that sin is an illusion. wow. so confusing.

i know that this isn't true. they base there faith on the Bible. show me, where in the Bible, it says sin is an illusion and i might consider it. but until then, i'm sticking with God's word and my faith in Jesus Christ.
