The existence or non-existence of God is considered irrelevant in Buddhism - it is an experiental practice, not a doctrine. One of the main principles of Buddhism is: Do not accept anything on (mere) hearsay Do not accept anything by mere tradition Do not accept anything on account of mere rumors Do not accept anything just because it accords with your scriptures. Do not accept anything by mere suppositions. Do not accept anything by mere inference. Do not accept anything by merely considering the reasons. Do not accept anything merely because it agrees with your pre-conceived notions. Do not accept anything merely because it seems acceptable Do not accept anything thinking that the priest [saying it] is respected
