> The Buddhists I know say Buddhism isn't a religion.
Many religions claim to not be a "religion" in an attempt to raise themselves
above the fray. However,
A "RELIGION" is nothing more than "A WORLD VIEW".
How do YOU view the world and how you fit in it? Yes, athiestism is a
religion. So can be a political party. The beliefs of "the afterlife" are NOT
the religion, they are part of religions, but not the religion itself. A
religion might contain various rules, recommended practices and "revelations",
but the fact remains that EVERYBODY has a religion of some form--even Andrew!
Of course, you realize that under this definition, Zuikoholicism is a religion.
