Just as different interpretations of The Bible have led to different churches, different views or understandings of the Buddhas teachings as they've been passed down through time. At the same time I think different traditions respond to and interpret events and situations that never could have been imagined in the time of the Buddha.

Actually Buddhism had and still has a significant effect on India. At one time Buddhism was the largest religion in India. This lasted for quite some time until Hindu priests used their political power to dampen the spread of Buddhism and cause it to decline. Regardless of ancient history, the Buddha's teachings were brought into Hinduism and the Buddha is still revered by Hindus as the ninth avatar of Vishnu.
