Who says that they don't have a god who causes suffering? Ever heard of Maru? He is a godlike being, with red skin, and horns. He tempts people into sin and stops their salvation. According to their stories the Buddha during his time in the wilderness got tempted by him 3x and defeated him by argument. This story was recorded in the 6th century BCE
That feeling you have of the floor dropping out from under you is a normal reaction. Don't be alarmed.
Eh... that depends on which particular sect you're talking about. Some lean more heavily in to the supernatural than others.
As I asked before. Name 2 sects that do not have supernatural elements. Also you know that their holy writings do not back you up. Maru was not an allegory for them.
You may have asked that, but not of me. More to the point, I didn't say anything about sects with no supernatural elements, so I'm not sure why you're asking me to name examples of those. I said some lean more heavily into the supernatural than others. This conversation will go a lot more smoothly if you respond to what I'm actually saying instead of what you imagine I'm saying or what other people in other conversations you're participating in are saying.
Fine. There are some sects that have less woo.
