TopicBuddism seems like a very negative religion. Very negative.

I would argue that one does not actually need to live. It's not like humans are neccesary. A worm is more worthwhile of an existence when you think about it. Worms are good.

You do have a point. It's very egotistical to think that humans need to be here. We have no more right to exist than the dinosaurs did. However self-preservation is an instinct and that has to come from somewhere.

Worms lack an ego and survive on instinct alone. That to me equates to a pure existence. Plus they are good for the Earth.

Living beyond your means and having unrealistic desires also goes against instinct and actually can be detrimental to one's own survival.

I think that's what the Buddha aimed to highlight.
