they can't understand how someone can think this is it. but i think it's more about them and their fears .

i have had people who didn't care if i believed in any specific one, but when they see that i'm not anything, not even buddhist or any other religious. i'm not even "not religious but spiritual" type they get confused and can't understand it.
