How does religion work?

Let us first find the dictionary meaning of the word Religion which is "A strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny" Now having done that we must next discover what the purpose of this supernatural power is. Two purposes come to mind that of Good and that of Evil. If one wishes to learn about Good then one has to find out about the Power that is good. All good come from God. If however we wish to turn to Evil then we turn towards the dark powers of Satan. Both good and evil can be to some degree classed as a religion. The Religion of good can only be to your benefit and the glory of God, whereas the the Religion of evil is only for the gratification of Satan, where the one builds you up the other will drag you down. Where God is all caring Satan is without care, he has no pity, no forgiveness and no mercy. Religion works on the very heart and soul of mankind, either for good or for evil. It is instilled into man from his very birth to know good from evil. The choice is left to the individual which way he will turn.


Which religion contributes most to charity?

It represent's the religion known ask 'Jashinism' it's proper name is an equilateral circumscribed triangle.

Why is Mass at Church important?

Because it is a catholic celebration of the Eucharist in Mass. Every religion has to keep its followers on the path to their own versions of righteousness. Therefore keeping them all in one place and telling them the benefits and rewards for their faithfulness is the way to do this. However many times a week, month, year, lifetime you must attend is entirely dependent on the religion.

Is history part of religion?

A:History and religion are separate but overlapping studies. A student of history will sooner or later learn about the religion of the people at the time in history that he or she is studying; a student of religion will learn about the history of the times when the religion evolved. Care must be taken because followers of each religion may have, from ancient times, created legends that are not necessarily dissimilar to the true history of the times but nevertheless do not accurately reflect events that actually happened.
