My dabbling with the philosophy of my ancestors was the Tao Te Ching.
When you think about it though, the one thing in common with Buddhism and Christianity is the Golden Rule. It's worded slightly differently but the meaning is essentially the same.
I consider doubt to be an integral part of faith because, if you don't doubt, you won't seek to understand your faith and more importantly, WHY you believe. A lot of people believe blindly, they don't know why they do, and that's almost as dangerous and potentially self-destructive and extremist religiosity.
