      Buddhism as a religion is basically anti-life. Wanting something, having goals and pursuing them - that's what every living creature does. Except for Buddhist, who often deliberately choose death as their way out of their miserable lives, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokushinbutsu https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokushinbutsu Buddhism is a religion of losers trying to convince themselves that being a loser is OK.
