Bill,
Those religions are as secular as you please. The religious wrappers are the
advertizing for the medicine. As a mature practitioner, you can see this, or
have seen it for a long time. What we must not do is spoil it for others by
lessening the appeal of the sales pitch. No one can start out where you are.
If they try, they will die unsatisfied.
