1) Buddhism ponders a world in which everyone keeps on being re-incarnated and if you're lucky enough to be incarnated as a monk and keep X number of rules you *might* reach Nibbana in this lifetime.
2) Hinduism is an umbrella term referring to a number of completely different and unrelated religions, even after both the 19th and the 20th Centuries saw efforts to centralize them into one religion.
3) Judaism in all its forms rejects that God's laws apply to Gentiles beyond the Noachide Laws. Effectively it's *non*-evangelical, as is Hinduism, and both for the same reason-they center on peoples, not the more abstract realities of the Great Religions.
