Life is suffering. It's inescapable. All we can do is learn to cope with that reality as best we can. And we can do it without organized religion.

everyone has a religion though, religion is your intrinsic belief system. Athiesm is a religion. I don't understand what you mean by 'without organized religion'

Religion is not an intrinsic belief system as it's born from a community who indoctrinate and dictate your belief. An intrinsic belief system, by definition, is intrinsic. It doesn't need a figurehead or a revered book to guide you. It's an accumulation of your values based on experience and observation and critical thinking. You can most definitely be compassionate, inquisitive, and spiritual without religion. Philosophy is also a set of beliefs, but it's not religion.

Philosophy is not a religion. However, you can be religious and a philosopher just like you can be a non-religious philosopher as well.
That point I made was in response to your blanket statement "Everyone has religion though." This is completely false. I think you're mixing up your definition of religion and personal values/morals.

You can't argue with me because your logic is broken. That's why you resort to ad-hominem attacks instead of what my argument is about.
