imagine a religion of people genuinely happy for being alive and being thankful to God for this
a religion whose message is "LIVE IS GREAT! FUCK YEAH! THANK YOU, GOD! WE PRAISE THEE! "
instead human religions go more like this "we live in a fallen world, you shouldn't get attached to it, in fact, don't pay much attention to it; if you join our soulnet (soul botnet), we guarantee you freedom from all this pain you're experiencing"
in Christianity people need to literally get "saved" -- saved from what? from this world, it seems
this world is so shit that when religions say "immortality", they don't mean staying in this world forever, they mean switching to some eternal paradise, no one would even want to stay here forever
the dharmic religions hate this world so much that their highest goal is ceasing to exist as an individual, not even switching to some potential better realm
I bet 90%+ prayers are either "god, help/advise me" or "god, give me consolation, living is too hard", not "WOW! YET ANOTHER DAY OF EXPERIENCING THE JOY OF BEING ALIVE! THANKS, BASED GOD! "
when people are thankful in their prayers or write their little gratitude journals, they either do it because they've avoided even more pain (and that danger shouldn't exist in the first place imho) or because they've been told that they should be grateful for muh miracle of life and that it will make them less depressed (this is a fun concept: people are being thankful for the lives that led them into depression, but it seems you can scam your brain) and they simply larp
