An alternative to atheist thought

Then don't put up with it.  Ever look into the Four Noble Truths?

Yes! I have, thanks for asking. I think Buddhism has a lot of merits, but ultimately it is misleading, like all other religions. I mean they are supposed to lead people to a certain outcome, but they don't (in this case the outcome or goal is the elimination of suffering from people's lives). I seriously doubt that very many Buddhist people in the whole history of Buddhism have achieved a completely blissful life, with no suffering in it.

I really believe all religions are aimed at getting people to "behave", to be good citizens, and do what the people who rule humanity need them to do. They are not aimed at procuring the welfare of the people.

I doubt many have achieved it as well.  But I don't think the achievement is the point.
