"Western civilization has come to a universal agreement that the key to happiness is freedom. It's all we talk about. It is also why the Libertarian-leaning types even think narcotics should be legalized -- after all, shouldn't you be "free" to put anything you want into your own body? The fundamental end goal of all of this s--t we're doing every day -- all the work, all the wars -- is to give people a chance to do whatever makes them happy. So why not this?
But anyone who's watched a friend tortured by withdrawal symptoms knows this is a paradox: the addict is "free" to keep doing drugs, but he's not free to stop doing drugs-- the product came with a built-in chemical mechanism that punishes the user with physical torture if they stop. That's not freedom."--https://www.cracked.com/blog/7-creepy-ways-corporations-are-turning-you-into-addict/ by Jason Pargin a.k.a. David Wong
"This is awful, it's like everywhere we turn there's another godd--n sin to deal with. I mean what the h--l, isn't that frustrating? I mean, s--t, how's a person supposed to live if absolutely every last godd--ned thing is against the rules? It's like every godd--ned sin is a goddamned Catch-22, it's bulls--t."

Just b/c a person might be a 'painful ethno-cliche' doesn't mean they're wrong. Years ago my high school co-op teacher, an Italian* female who I gave me something of a hard time/ I didn't really get along w/ was hearing out some other about 'the nonsecular'.
She brought up eventually how she doesn't follow religion and why. She brought up how being Italian she grew up w/Catholicism but in her opinion there is something cultish about any religion , but to be fair she brought up how interesting religion is as a phenomena and how it can be benefical in some ppl's lives.
* I can go on tangents about/read accounts on unpleasant experiences w/Catholicism, having been in a nonpublic school board and persistent demographics etc
____
She might have been 'painful ethno-cliche' doesn't she wasn't right. To be rather candid I agree with her. 75%+-80% agree with her; all the density of sacred literature and surrounding nigh-academic tomes, history and accomodating 'admin' for it (ex.clerics) but 'the baby in the bath water' is nearly always a cultivation of mindfulness which 'reveals' itself differently for everyone, for any one individual**.
What we might but seeing things in a nonreligious way is any less sensible than seeing things in a religious way. Even nontheistic religions aren't exempt; that debate and the insistence but Stepford smiler like host of the meditation retreat for me to stay unfortunately comes to mnd. I gave a lot of reasons related to language and the neccesity of past experience in contrast to the variable epistemic irresponsibility he was using to weave via a 'but we're trying to teach you to be in present' justification before that d--n 'you need to stay here line' and it's shock coming from someone who probably wasn't aware of how I'm a Hamiltonian and not local TO resident.
......
The decorum and decked out ritualism which comes w/a nontheistic Dharmmic religion like Buddhism is an ancient Indic accrument is what I mean to say^4..the religion can be dang uncanny in it's successes at experential sustainability but there's a reason why secular Buddhism declares itself a thing seperate from say the Theravada, Mahayana or Tibetan denominations, say. I'm aware of this. I'm aware of this but am still gladdened by seeing cross-pollination btw Buddhist monastics and cognitive scientists in about the same way I'm gladdened to see cross-pollination btw Abrahamic hermeneutic scholars and historians say.

On the one hand as important as a fair amount of that stuff has been to I hate myself, I self-loathe at times for being in a world which will either (i) laugh a/o ridicule me obnoxiously, (ii) give scowly faced apathy to hearing how your are glad to think this is important..
When so much ppl, nonsecular lense or not live in a sphere often veering near d--n toxic existential hedonism not the least when you think money is the only shared basis for action/final cause, it's likely to happenLife perpetually, 1000's of years of human history spent barely every caring to live consistently beyond a 'level ~2.5' on 'Fowlers stages of faith development' b/c of the 'have and have-nots' shlock-ish struggles and prejudices I've gone on ad nausem on before. When so much ppl, nonsecular lense or not live in a sphere often veering near d--n toxic existential hedonism not the least when you think money is the only shared basis for action/final cause.
or (iii) (most painfully) a self-acknowledged that religion 'is a joke' in the sense that your not really expected to take it too seriously in terms of purpoted finality and certainty^5..

Wasn't there a season 'American horror story' (hive(?)) not too long ago about cutlish-ness and the 2k16 U.S. election?..
That line she said about cultishness, that line she said about cultishness though has stuck with me over the years..
..when it comes to barriers socializing..
the cutlish-ness isn't really totally relevant to say theology or purported ontology as much as it's ultimately about the psychology of following. Organized worship/devotion in contrast to *individual* personal conviction and maybe
when it comes to barriers socializing..look I have a lot of issues, English or otherwise saying F R I E N D ..
I'm glad if anyone says it as a compliment to me but can't accept it. Not really. I can be accomodating, cooperative and maybe even 'easy to get along with' in terms of behaviour..
..but even if I get past all my prejudices (racial, ageist, if someone is overall unpleasantly irresponsible or toxic to be around etc),judgements and misgivings..as evident as it is to me in terms of a barrier to intimacy..don't count on me saying f r i e n d or the like.
Religions--cults--organized groups/ instituition of a sociomechanistic flavour--groups--
~ groups: friends (at best), cliques (at worst) ..individuals who apparently spend enough time w/one another in consistent authentic interest without finding the other to be unlikably banal or the like , hypothetically never on a 'means to end' basis like the pursuit of some transaction ~
=_= and that d--n Nelson Muntz style laugh from childhood of apparently justified ridicule not only from other pre preteens but from a fair amount of jacka-- adults who w/self-satisfaction never sought to develop 'intrapersonally+' (w/religion or not) after ~+105,120 hrs/ ~12 years
..and the f---k--rs are going to make most of the world's composition in terms of meeting expectations and engaging with scarcity..
That's not to say of final changes/death, responsibilities and the idiotic, self-contradicting, counterproductive self-deception of apathy which almost never declares anything to be important but that which is desired.

Splitting hairs btw family or community
I think that one thing I meant to say was I justify to myself not having friends with the a similar kind of, the same kind of fear as that which comes w/cults. Peer pressures and it's dangers, not having your personal boundaries respected and violated, consequent uncomfort and the corniness and consequent ridicule a/o judgement for being vocal about this
..and needing to stomach through through who on a scale of -10 to 10 might never really trigger interest beyond +~2.5 ..
This is why saying 'your not suppose to care about what others think' seems like such a lie..having friends means by definition patient enough with others b/c you care about them, doesn't it ?.
If I always think of things in terms of 'the negate-tive', I form definitions based on non-presence but it's anxious to hold onto when you don't have experience.
I constantly judge in that my trust esp. inter-relationally is always up for wavering.

..of course, it ultimately points and reflects on my own insecurities specifically and broader anxieties on not being able to provide b/c goodness forbid me from being destroyed in an any less neurodiverse espousing world/ sum of all my social interactions ((my) reality).

"If all of human knowledge is like a library that we can borrow from or add to, then when men don't put these kinds of stories on the shelves nobody can borrow them. We all miss out on the intellectual resources necessary to understand and take control of these sorts of experiences when they do happen. That's why Terry Crews' work [highlighting his sexual abuse] is so important, visibly being a man who has been hurt. And not hurt in the Batman sense of, "IT'S MY PAAAAIIIIN. IT DEFINES WHO I AM!" but hurt in the sense that this should not have happened and we can't move on; we can only move forward with it. It's righting what in philosophy we would call an 'Epistemic Injustice'.
