    I googled "Who was Buddha," and read that Buddha is a title meaning one who has awakened to reality.

    Sounds good!

    Buddhism is very very very interesting.

    To people who feels the need to have a religion I always point to Buddhism.

    Even though I appreciate Buddhism as philosophy.

    So you're not a buddhist, you're a buddha. That's even better.

    How about typing in google'what is a buddha'

    The definition given seems to also discribe a neuro-scientist, quantum physist, serious meditators, and what not that proclaims 'god is in the neuron' and that all we have is the mental reality as recognized by those who do the math so to speak.

    A buddha is someone who sees the way things really are. When we see the way things really are, we see that we’re all in this together, that we are all interdependent. A great surpassing love arises from that wisdom, and that love leads a buddha to wish that all beings would open to this wisdom and be free of the misery that arises from ignoring the way things are. Buddhas appear in the world because they want us to have a buddha’s wisdom, so that we will love every single being completely and protect every single being without exception and without limit — just as all the buddhas do.
