Best Answer

Buddha was not and is not generally considered a god. Some Buddhists see him as a creator, and a god whom they pray to. In ancient China and in modern day China you bow to elders and give them respect, Buddhist followers bow down to Buddha all in the floor to show him respect and honor; he is not worshiped but he is praised. These are not the same thing, An example of this is if you are 96 years old and I am 18. I meet you and respect and know you and your wisdom. I bow down to you showing you how respectful of your wisdom I am.
