Yeah that is what pretty much bursts the relational religion bubble. Pretty much EVERY religion teaches the same underlying principles, including Christianity. Except Christianity is different in that it tells us the only way to get to heaven is to trust and believe in Jesus. Every other major religion (more or less) is based on the idea that to get to heaven you have to be disciplined, follow the guidelines of the religion etc.

Crazy Hades: Buddhism... Well a lot of buddhist teachers who have read the bible will tell you that Jesus was enlightened, particularly teachers of Zen Buddhism. I don't see the remarkable similarity in their teachings though. Buddhism says that life is full of suffering, so first of all learn not to suffer because of insignificant things. Look within yourself and you will reach enligtenment. If you reach enlightenment, you can die once and for all and leave the cycle of living in this life... aka Nirvana.

Christianity is just like... Well, here's the 10 commandments and the teachings of Jesus. Give it a bit of a go, if things don't work out, it's OK just say sorry and mean it. And believe that Jesus was the messiah, then you're set.
