So the fuck what........ You gave the ghost away with "man made institutions" BINGO

You think those "for noble truths" are special? Bullshit. Do you really need a list of code to figure out it is not nice to steal from people or physically harm them? How much comparative religion studies have you done? You would stupidly argue that no other religion in the world has similar ideas of motifs of kindness and peace? AGAIN even just those 4 noble truths were a cure, then why does Asia and the Orient have it's own history of violence? Not even that list is a cure. AND AGAIN, because, like you said, IT IS MAN  MADE, and again, all religions are man made and all can point to the ideas of wanting peace and charity. 

THAT says to me, and I say this to ALL religions worldwide, that our species morality is in our evolution not our labels.

What makes you believe (that I believe) that the four noble truths are "special"?

They're nothing of the sort.  ( P.S. Why are you so angry?)
