My point was that Buddhism is religion, they are all the same.

First, they're all bullshit.

Second, a tiny percentage actually adhere to scripture.

So if you say 'I believe in X', but your actions are contrary to that scripture should I really think you believe in 'X'?

And the TST is also a religion.

Anyway, your 'they're all bullshit' comment makes it clear you didn't join this thread to have a good faith discussion, but rather to shit on views different from your own.

So, I'll leave you to it. Enjoy.

That's rather simplistic and dismissive.

I would love it if there was some kind of unifying force to make the world better.

Religion does not seem to be it though.

That's a lot of projection. You just dismissed all religion as bullshit, which is simplistic and dismissive.

I said, welp, you don't seem to be acting in good faith, so I'm not going to keep playing.

Then, you project?

We can try again, but not until you reread your comments and understand why I stopped engaging.
