Democracy: The Failure of a System become Religion (the more apt term is "Western liberalism" instead of "democracy." Western liberalism is bourgeois liberalism–oligarchy of ownership– rather than democracy as government of, by and for the people. As such it is neo-feudalism, with ownership of technology replacing that of land.)

The naked ape's inability to accept its own mortality is a bug, not a feature.
The overwhelming majority of human suffering is of the psychologically generated sort which arises from the process of egoing, and the overwhelming majority of what’s left (starvation, violence, untreated sickness etc) is born of human agendas to exert control and hoard wealth because of egoing.
Neglects the fact that psychological suffering is due to our social nature. If there were no one to compare ourselves to, or be confronted by rules, ideals and expectations that are not are own, our 'ego' would do just fine.
There is a you, there are others. You are the cause of X, others are the cause of X.
X can be many things, such as joy or suffering.
There is suffering you can avoid, suffering you can limit, suffering you will endure, and suffering you will die of.
Denying my ephemeral existence wouldn't help me avoid, limit, endure, or accept suffering.
So I don't bother with such mental constructs, up to and including a belief in one or more deities. To me, they are not necessary. To Caitlyn, and jrbarch, and others, they are.
