Are student religion groups allowed to meet in school?

Schools must ensure that there is no sponsorship or endorsement of a particular religion by the school itself.


Can people have a religion in communism countries?

A main tenet of communism is that religion is necessarily false and is unjustly used to control the masses. In all communist states, religion is strongly discouraged (i.e., penalized). Nevertheless, a certain degree of religion is tolerated to accommodate committed believers who might find death preferable to life without God. In the USSR, Russian Orthodox was allowed. In China, a variety of religions is allowed, including Islam and Catholicism. Religions must register with the government, and in some countries the adherents must register as well; church leaders must be approved by the government; proselyting is forbidden. Governments like power and do not like to share it. Freedom of religion requires continual defense. Freedom of religion, as well as all other freedoms in the US, is under challenge, and is being chipped away, bit by bit.


What does separation of religion and state mean?

Yes, although it is hardly an easy task. Many countries have separated church and state. They either have seen the dismal result of their own theocratic history or else they look to such countries as Iran and Saudi Arabia today where religion is a compulsory part of society and law.A truly free society must separate the two, for religion is a personal belief and should never be a part of any government that serves all citizens.


How many followers must a religion have to be considered a religion?

There is no set number of followers required for a belief system to be considered a religion. A religion is typically defined by its beliefs, practices, rituals, and cultural aspects rather than the number of followers it has. The significance and influence of a religion are not solely determined by its size.


What are good things that religion teaches?

religion teaches us our genderAnswer:All living things are given a nature. They must live according to that given nature. Animals and plants have one nature and man and human have another. As human, we must live according to that given nature. As human, we ought to be kind, loving, sympathetic, loving, caring, patient and tolerant. We have to make a conscious effort to reveal these kindly and humane qualities because these qualities are not a part of our conduct. We are required to practice a religion, to bring these essential qualities in our conduct by gaining knowledge, through devotion by doing deeds that are good. Religion asks us to believe in our creator. It asks us to direct our love and devotion towards it. We are required to read scriptures and lastly we have to perform certain rituals. The divine quality, through patience and practice, gradually seeps into our conduct. Through religion, we acquire at least the semblance of human. We learn to live in peace with each other. That is the sole purpose of religion.

What is required to become a good Muslim Australian citizen?

To me, and this is not a complete list, but being a good Australian citizen means working hard, obeying the rule of law, participating in the political process, respecting the rights and opinions of others and looking out for your mates. I don't believe that any of these contradict what is also required to be a good Muslim. That being the case, I can't see why a person cannot be both a good Muslim and a good Australian citizen. Islam is not my religion, but as a good Australian citizen, I must (and I do) respect and support the right of Muslims to practice their religion... and I welcome them as fellow Australian citizens.
