Karma

The basis of any religion is a form of belief in Karma. You reap what you sow. If you do good things, those will come back to you, and if you do wrong, that is what will come back.

So when you are good your whole life and you do something bad sometimes, the overall Karma will still lead to better rebirth in the afterlife.

Second, it doesn't fit well with our own Judeo-Christian background, which assumes the existence of an eternal soul or self as a basic presupposition: If there's no self, what's the purpose of a spiritual life? Many books try to answer these questions, but if you look at the Pali canon — the earliest extant record of the Buddha's teachings — you won't find them addressed at all. In fact, the one place where the Buddha was asked point-blank whether or not there was a self, he refused to answer. When later asked why, he said that to hold either that there
