The Dalai Lama Compares Religion to Medicine to Suggest That

The Dalai Lama compares religion to medicine to suggest that

A) all religions provide a means to reduce people's suffering in this life and their anxiety about death, just as a medicine reduces suffering of the body.
B) religions must not be assessed just by looking at their beliefs or practices, but by looking at how they affect particular people's spiritual and ethical development.
C) just as people are often fooled by misguided or deliberately false medical claims, so people are often fooled or misguided by false religious claims.
D) the wisest course of action with respect to religion is to follow the advice of a trusted expert, just as you follow the medical advice of a doctor.
