For you. it sure is.  

You tout this country as being a xian nation.  As such, your initial 
premise above plus my statistics demonstrates that life expentancy is 
lower in the US because it is xian.  

You still have time to convert to an Oriental religion and live a 
few years longer.  After all, you're in your late 60's.  

BTW, Taoism, Buddhism amd Confuscianism aren't religions.  They are 
philosophies. (Though some Buddhists do treat Buddhism as if it was 
a religion)
