Where is your proof that religion was made for people to understand how the world works? Isn't that found in texts as well? You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Buddhism isn't really a religion as it is a philosophy. Of all the religions that are around, it is the mainstream one I usually brush aside. Call me an elitist, but there are WAY too many loopholes and flaws in basic design that get me for taking it any more than that it is what the eastern world has grown up with so it doesn't really know any better because it fits with all the doom and gloom no material possession lifestyles they live.
