It's pretty hard to be a faithful member of a major religion and a Buddhist at the same time, since some of the philosophies of both are in opposition. For example, the afterlife. Buddhism states that you pretty much lose yourself in Nirvana, a state of oneness with all. However, most religions say that you ascend to a higher plane of existance, and live out eternity in pure bliss. Or burn forever.

One could try to mesh things together, but it would be a hell of a task.
