Buddhism Some argue that its not a religion, and only a way of life.

Some say that it is downright philosophy. Whatever category Buddhism should fall under, is really subjective to each individual depending on what you can perceive from it. But those who really understand the teachings of Buddha will see that Buddhism depicts the path of life that if followed correctly, leads to the end of suffering. There are no gods, deities, or special beings to worship in Buddhism, as Buddha himself was a human being who understood the truth, became enlightened as a result, and was able to pass on his knowledge to mankind.
