When it comes to religion, I think you have to cherry pick, because there is so much nonsense and mind control stuff in it. But there are good things in it too. I’m interested in shinto at the moment, but there’s not a lot of good info about it that’s translated into Western languages. Taoism is also really fascinating. The Zhuangzi is one of the two big books of taoism, the other being the Dao de Jing, and it is probably my favorite book ever.
I also like things about confucianism.
(Buddhism, christianity, Islam as well as hinduism also have good things of course, but with those big religions I think there are negative things connected to them. More so than shinto, taoism and confucianism. The big reigions seem to have more of the mind control, conformity stuff)
