Question, isn't buddhism just a teaching, a way of life, philosophy..etc, and not a belief in a higher being. From what I remember, it just teach you to do good in life, such as help others, a human moral instead of a belief in a supernatual being.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

This is why some people debate calling Buddhism a religion, it's more of a way of life. It's very inspirational. You have to find your own path by meditating, questioning and reflecting on various things. It is a nice way of being spiritual and better yourself without worshipping any higher beings.

Or certain people practise Buddhism with their own religion. It can go hand in hand with other things.

@ Topic: I can't really add anything, I've never been religious but I did my own research and no religion ever made sense to me. The only thing I did, was have my own morals that I follow and learned a few things from Buddhism. Meditation helps with my anxiety.
