>religious bullshit
I don't think it is a stoic pov to consider religion an invalid source for life wisdom
>eastern made up spirituality shit
I don't practice or have a current interest in eastern philosophy, however I think the benefit of basic eastern tenets like meditation and release from materialism are far from useless - the benefits of meditation are very well cited both anecdotally and scientifically.
>Made by proud Greeks
Proudly fucking young men IIRC
>Great for trading
Agree, but so are the other schools of thought you bashed for no reason, which is inherently a non-stoic position.

Also, probably the most popular stoic work is literally called "Meditations".
