Early religious beliefs served as ways to explain the unnatural events that sometimes occued in the ancient world (storms, earthquakes, floods, etc...). These beliefs grew into someone/soemthing/somethings controlling these events, which in turn lead to established early religions such as Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christinaity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Shinto, Animism, and many other religions that still exist today.

What is the difference if you are religious you are good and if you are not religious you are bad?

A:The difference is prejudice or pride, depending on the context. Of course, religious and non-religious people are equally capable of being good and equally capable of being bad. But a minority of religious people do not see it like this, believing that religious people are inherently good and non-religious people are inherently bad. That view in itself is bad, or in religious terms, a sin - either the sin of prejudice or the sin of pride. These are sins a non-religious person is unlikely to commit, at least in this comparison.

A:If religious people of all persuasions can contribute to world peace, all to the good.
