The entire Western framework is a schizo mess. Your philosophy and religion are walled off from each other, forcing you to be a brain-in-a-vat for analysis and a feeler for spirituality, never letting the two meet. Christianity's core idea is a massive chasm between a transcendent sky-daddy and his creation, an alienating dualism that infects everything and leads directly to the Cartesian mind-prison where your ego is perpetually trapped and separated from reality. This is the root of the modern blackpill. It's a self-centered faith that historically leads to crusades and intolerance because your "personal relationship" with God makes you think your way is absolute. Compare that to Buddhism: instead of a split, you get an organic, interconnected whole where everything flows together. The goal is realizing Śūnyatā (emptiness), which isn't nihilistic nothingness, but a positive reality once you annihilate the ego. It's the death of the self that leads to a life of true freedom, compassion, and non-attachment, letting you see things as they truly are. It's an existentially engaged path focused on your actual, daily life, not abstract dogma. Christianity and its obsession with "will" created the poison of modern nihilism. Buddhism is the antidote that actually solves it by getting rid of the self-centered ego at the heart of the problem.

Christianity and Judaism are Eastern religions because they originated in the East

Buddhism fails to overcome the subtle dualism of one’s own mind-stream or Ground being different from that which belongs to another person, setting up an ineradicable dualism marking oneself as distinct and different from others, this final dualism is only shattered and overcome in Advaita Vedanta.
