The category of African indigenous religion refers to cultural, religious or spiritual manifestations indigeneous to the continent of Africa. There are arguably several religions in this category. Traditional African religions involve teachings, practices, and rituals that lend structure to the African native societies. Traditional African societies reflect local conceptions of God, the Gods (if the cultures are polytheistic or henotheistic), and the cosmos. Even within single communities there may be slightly different perceptions. African traditionalists almost always acknowledge the existence of a high God or demiurge who created the universe (Shango, Olorun, etc.) Many traditional African stories speak of how God or God's son once lived among the people, but as humans did something to give offense to God, God withdrew to the heavens. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_traditional_religion

To study the role religion plays in people's lives.
No. religion is not a common problem in Sudan. The religion followed in the Sudan is Islam and as the majority of the people follow same religion and same sect, it is highly unikely that religion is a problem in Sudan. However, as Sudan is no a secular country but an Islamic state, therefore the religion plays a more important part in the life of sudanese people than in the lives of people of other countries.
Some people like to believe in something and religion plays a large part in the lives of many people.
Because unlike countries such as the United States, Israel's government does not have a removal of church and state. Also, religion has been apart of their government for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years, religion plays a large part in their lives and government. Moron.
Yes. Just like any other culture, religion plays a big role in peoples lives no matter where they may live. I'm pretty sure they are mostly catholic and as hipanics they are more centered around they're religious beliefs and are very religious people.

For many people, religion trumps all other aspects of their lives. Religion is a huge aspect of culture. As culture is something that defines many countries, therefore religion is a defining trait of countries. Religion drives people to make certain decisions and choices economically. It determines lifestyles, which influences spending habits. Therefore, religion plays an economic role in the world.

As with people all around the world, religion is becoming less important for the younger generations, but Buddhism and Daoism still play a part in the lives of many Han Chinese, particularly the older generations, as well as most minority ethnic groups. Islam also plays a central role in the lives of Hui Chinese people.I have even seen domestic shrines in the homes of some Chinese people. The Spring Festival is very important, and people flock to the Temples to celebrate. Religion has no real part in marriage celebrations, except for the Christian minority, but becomes important for funerals and for remembrance of the dead. People who are otherwise Buddhists will sometimes visit a Daoist priest to learn about future prospects. Some people spend time in their early years as monks and nuns.

Religion plays a minor role in "The Catcher in the Rye" as Holden questions traditional values and struggles with larger existential questions. While he mentions religion occasionally, his focus is more on finding meaning and connection in a world he sees as superficial and phony. Religion serves as one of the many aspects of society that he critiques throughout the novel.
