Best Answer

Religion can provide unity among a group of people or culture, as well as values that a culture or nation lives and abides by. Religion (or, more appropriately the belief in some kind of god, gods or "higher power") has been scientifically shown to be beneficial to an individual's health and also their response to illness. Going beyond this, however, one usually hopes that their religion is providing truth or a way to truly access something beyond the normal, visible world. In this sense, religion can provide a "point" to life, or meaning to life.

A sense of wholeness, and a feeling that one is never alone. Your church body is always there for you.
A belief. But really, it just depends on the religion you are of

How do you help religon?

People are slowly starting to turn their backs on religion and with new religions like the Jedi knight religion, religion has also lost a lot of respect and meaning. No matter what religion you are part of it will eventually "die out" so don't bother. At the rate people have been leaving religion within 100 years most people will not be part of a religion. 200 years only a very small part of the world will believe in religion and in 500 years it will be in text books (or maybe some electronic device that was invented). I myself am not part of religion but for your remaining life if you do choose to stay with your religion, converting people to your religion or persuade people to not leave will help slightly but in the log run your work will be for nothing!
