it should be the opposite, mahayana is catholicism, integrates and adapts to regional customs, culture, traditions, places a big emphasis on celebrating saints/boddhisatva, has extensive mythology, especially when it comes to the afterlife with various popular characters and stories
while theravada is protestantism, saying that church is unneccessary, saints/boddhisatve are unneccessary, the only thing you need is holy scriptures and everything else is just a distraction, englightenment should be between you and jesus/buddha alone, at most you can have pastors/teachers that'll help in guiding you through scriptures but religious leaders are pointless
and vayjrayana is the people's temple, a batshit crazy retarded cult
