Your assumption is that religion wants you to suffer.

Religion, in my experience, wants you to be compassionate, accepting and give back to the community. This is not extreme.

Could you show me that assumption? I don't see that assumption present in my comment. Please help me to understand your perspective. Thanks.

Most people talk about Religions people being fanaticists with a disregard for human wellbeing. (Outside of their religion) I associate this with the sects that emigrated to America due to prosecution in Europe and American New religons. (Amish, those Utah people etc., those wierd evangelicals(?))

Of course there are also good religious groups in America.

How is that related to my comment and how does that answer my request for clarification? I am sorry but this seem completely unrelated.
