Well of course there are a lot of dogmatic elements in both, but I still think they´re not comparable. It´s hard to call yourself a christian without at least accepting the bits about Jesus dying for mankinds sins. Already at that point you´re heavily invested in dogma. Also the religious violence regarding buddhists don´t really have a clear line from the doctrine (except perhaps zen buddhism which doesn´t really emphasize compassion). In the case of christiany there are clear lines between doctrine and behaviour. God in the old testament clearly hates gays for example. The violence from buddhist from what i´ve read is more just regular tribalism, it´s not like it´s doctrine-inspired.

There´s a lot of research going on about mindfulness / vipassana and what ever is true about it is of course not buddhist. Just like algebra isn´t muslim because the inventors of it were muslim. Real knowledge / facts transcends these cultural contingencies.
