uMatrix is no longer maintained and is largely redundant. Mullvad Browser doesn't force DoH either, it's just enabled by default and you can turn it off pretty easily. In fact Mullvad's addon warns you if you're using DoH with Mullvad VPN, at least as far as I can remember (I don't use a VPN currently.).
The automatic connections are not arbitrary either. Your browser, addons, or uBlock filter lists not updating in a timely manner is much worse than the miniscule amount of data you're sending to the outside world.
I don't know how direct quotes from the aforementioned religion's books and the books themselves, supposedly written by their Gods, would be "misinterpretation" or "misrepresentation". And although my knowledge is limited in the case of Buddhism, at least AFAIK the religion essentially focuses on accepting one's suffering and ending it by losing one's desires. It does have delusional aspects such as reincarnation, but I don't really think they see Buddha as an absolutely virtous prophet. I could be wrong though, and I wouldn't mind some sources for your claims.
You can just read them to be honest: Skeptic's Annotated Quran Skeptic's Annotated Bible
Of course these are only for the 2 most popular religions, and it is impossible to say that every religion is evil because there are religions we don't know about and Buddhism isn't inherently evil.
No, you're wrong in the sense that they literally collect 0 data on your Mullvad BROWSER usage. It can't be another data point because Mullvad likely doesn't even know if you're using Mullvad Browser, let alone what you're doing with it.
Your point is only valid in the case of internet services, which a browser isn't. A browser is a piece of software that can be replaced in a minute if let's say Mullvad's whole development team and CEO went full batshit crazy and placed backdoors in the public (and FOSS, so it can be forked) codebase, unlike e-mail etc. And your Google example is invalid because you can't compare something like Google Chrome to Mullvad Browser.
It literally is? LibreWolf and other such "privacy browsers" only work to fool naive scripts, while Mullvad Browser works to completely mix you in with the crowd.
CreepJS has removed its Visits feature (Visits would show how many browsers with the exact same fingerprint had accessed the site) for some unknown reason so I can't really post a screenshot, but at least while I was using it around a year ago when it did have that my Mullvad Browser tests would always come up with the Visits value in the thousands, and LibreWolf only with 1.
Mullvad Browser by itself isn't foolproof though as you also need a VPN (preferably one that is usually coupled with Mullvad Browser) to actually mix in. Your IP could still theoretically be revealed this way by a state-level actor though, and if you're engaging in illegal activity (doesn't need to be drugs or anything, political activism is also illegal in many places) just use TailsOS with a WebTunnel bridge at that point, and preferably set Tor Browser's security level to "Safest" (you have to do this everytime you restart if you're using TailsOS).
Some tips for Tor enjoyers: Pin NoScript to the browser toolbar so you can bypass the security level restrictions when you need to (not recommended for most cases, use at your own discretion). And if you're having issues with the assigned IP address, you can request new Tor circuits via the sandwich menu on the top right.
Mullvad Browser doesn't collect your data, so the second paragraph is wrong. I completely agree with you on the first paragraph though. Also make sure not to change the window size in Mullvad Browser as that can also be used to track you. If you are using a tiling WM set a rule for it to make it floating at all times if possible. Also don't forget to disable Encrypted DNS if you're using a VPN.
