Buddhism and Nihilism

[valkyrie1488]

This just may be a product of my over-active imagination, but does anyone else notice the striking resemblance between Buddhism and Nihilism?

Buddhism is Nihilism in the framework of Hinduism mixed with Stoicism and Darwinism. Thats a shitload of "isms". HA!

yes you can make the connection that nihilism is a far more negative and misanthropic version of buddhism. but while buddhism ultimately ends with enlightment (hopefully), nihilism ends with.. the destruction of the social system. and so on.

Okay, I need to make sure I am not insane. I do not socialize so I can never be too sure. The resemblance was startling at first.
