Well, I do not think either of you will be harmed, seeing as Buddha is a symbol of peace. The worst you would have to worry about ti karma. Because you didn't tell a higher authority about your friend's actions while it was happening, you may also receive a punishment as well as letting your friend sin. I personally am a christian, but I am sure you will fix your mistakes in the future.

Is your Buddha statue worth money?
Anything is worth some money if you can find someone to pay. In the case of a Buddha statue it would depend on its material of construction (gold is worth more than plastic), size (all other things being equal bigger usually costs more), history (an antique is worth more than a piece of tourist schlock), artistic attributes ( an Buddha carved bya master is worth more than a "SMiling Buddha" from a CHinese restaurant)

Should Baptists have Buddha garden statue lights in their garden?
"SHOULD" is a difficult word. Many Baptists would consider that an area of "individual soul liberty" or something that is up to the conscious of the individual. Many Baptists would reject having a Buddha statue. The argument would be for some that it is a statue that is used as a center focus for worship by many (making it an idol and something to avoid). Others would reject it because of the image's very strong link to the Buddhism religion. In this case, they might not see having the statue as "wrong" but rather "inappropriate" as a Baptist Christian. Some, however, would feel that a statue as a piece of art is not an idol unless you worship it. And such a statue may link to a different religion but that does make it "wrong" to have. For these Baptists, they may have such a statue strictly as a decorative art.

How do you make a Buddha statue?
Sculptors from Michelangelo to Inuit soapstone carvers and even Miamoto Musashi have all employed the same process. It would be the same for a Buddha statue:Wander through the world until you come across a rock or piece of wood with a Buddha figure contained in it that you are meant to release.Study the material until you are one with it and envision the steps that you would have to do to reveal the Buddha contained there.Then simply remove the extraneous material until the figure is liberated.One of the systems in the Himalayan traditions is to create a statue by an industrial process (casting of metal typically). All aspects of the statue's appearance governed by predefined aesthetic rules. The outside of the statue should be 'perfect' within the context of these rules. The inside is cleaned, treated and filled with a range of materials in order to make the inside also perfect from a devotional point of view.
Is it okay to cut open a Buddha statue?
Buddha is NOT a God, he never claimed to be God. He was a man who became enlightened, hence the name Buddha (meaning one who is enlightened). Buddha is a teacher, someone to look up to, but never worship. The artwork are just symbols and reminders of this man and the great work he has done. Material things in this world mean nothing to a true Buddha. That said, some people will consider it disprespectful. For example, would you deface a portrait of the Queen of England, the American Flag or something you respect (not worship)? Absolutely not! Whether we understand another's religious beliefs or not, we should always have respect for most belief systems and not desecrate anything pertaining to their religious beliefs. What matters will be the purpose of the cutting. If done in anger, or in ill intentions, it will be bad. If done in pure intensions ie. Archeology etc. it won't be a problem. As buddhists it pains us to see the cutting of a buddha statue. But you'll never "go to hell, or be cursed" because you cut open a buddha statue. Answer To be honest when I saw this question I was slightly offended and horrified. But it is true... The Buddha was never- and never claimed to be- a god... so you will not be punished for it... I suppose. Though it is disrespectful to the Buddha. However, whoever wrote above me is correct. Do it with a pure heart and I suppose it isn't so bad Answer: The question is close to the Samuria Zen koan "If you meet the Buddha on the road - kill him!" It shocks you in several ways -Why would you. What would it mean. Shame! - Eventually there is a sense of equanimity that goes past that. Answer: yes everyone is right that you will not get punished if you cut open a Buddha statue as the buddha is not a God but it is very stupid and disrespectfull if you did.

Hopefully that never happens, but if it did it would not be good. I suppose they'd get to the bottom of who did it, clean up, and even rebuild. The statue of Liberty is to important, so they most likely would rebuild. I have no idea.
