Came here the same way you did and I share your point of view.
However I do think there is enlightening to be found in understanding that a human is only a consciousness that exists from moment to moment and receives external stimuli. Getting to this through meditation helped me being less affected by all the stuff that is going wrong in the world.
Step back from it. Reduce it to the light and sound it is. It takes some of its impact away.
I greatly disagree with seeing morality and immortality as the same, as well as life and death. Having an ethical and socialist view on the world is very important, even when not being affected by the unethical and unsocial aspects.
Well said. Agreed.
