It doesn't believe in some mythical god or any nonsense like that.
It's more about philosophy. If you relinquish all material desires, then you no longer feel pain. Desires are the source of all suffering. By overcoming your material desires, you'll become a more happy and a more enlightened person.

"what if you were walking down the street and got stabbed you would feel pain without a desire."
You want to live. The pain you feel is not necessarily an illusion, considering that it's the result of your brain sending messages, but it's the inevitable desire to live that is found in all people. You can't mitigate physical pain, but nonetheless, physical pain that ensues from a wound is considered a desire even if the feeling cannot be avoided.
ya idk i'm not a buddhist just learned about buddhism in pre-ib world history today |

I'm Buddhist and I agree, all religions have their qualities but Buddhists don't believe in this great mythological god, we all believe in a man who went from being prince of India to a great teacher and monk who taught other people the way to live peacefully and without pain,regret, and other negative feelings. We consider him as a teacher, not a super powerful person who made the universe. Karma and fate decide our paths. The more I suck, the more powerful I'll become-Kirby #TotalBadass |

Basically, if you actually want to help push mankind in terms of technology, you may not want to be a conventional, traditional Buddhist. If you want to live a peaceful life that has very little pain, regret, sadness, etc., which most people face sometime in their lifetime, become a Buddhist.
Also the Japanese, for the most part, practice Buddhism. Look at how far they are; they have one of the leading economies, world super power, tons of Forbes billionaires are Japanese, etc. Of course, they wouldn't be traditional Buddhists though, considering Buddhism is all about living a life of nonviolence, poverty, and not getting married. But it does prove that a society can still advance to a huge extent even if it's main religion is Buddhism or the like.

I believe in a God, that is, really, better than me, you, and everyone on this earth. A mere human is not worth my worshipping. Aka Chrsitianity k

@gon Well it's better than people being close-minded about these kinds of topics..?
"what is pre-ib i took ap world history last year never heard of pre-ib"
We can't take AP's if we're doing IB. IB actually starts 11-12 grade and it's a lot harder than AP. |

| @perp Maybe learn about Buddhism prior to being against it. Buddhism doesn't believe in any gods. It follows the teachings of the Buddha, but he only acts as a "teacher" on how to live your life and reach nirvana, not as a deity to be worshiped. |

Buddhism is not really a religion. It's more of a philosophy.
