Buddhism, with its emphasis on ending suffering, might appeal to sevens.


That's ONE emphasis of Buddhism. Another is non-attachment. I think it would be difficult for those worldly Sevens to stop living in the outside world and to retreat back into the mind for meditation. So, I would say Buddhism appeals more to 4, 5, and 9's. Buddha himself was supposedly a Five.

A more Sevenish religion would be the Church of Elvis Divine or maybe one of those cults that have Dionysian orgies all day long. I dunno. =o)
