RELIGION EFFECT IN SOCIETY
“religion is like a tree live in society”
Effect in life
The patriarch Abraham (by József Molnár)
From 4 different religion:
1. Christianity
2. Islam
3. Hinduism
4. Judaism
5. Buddhist
There are numerous definitions of religion and only a few
are stated here. The typical dictionary definition of reli-
gion refers to a "belief in, or the worship of, a god or
gods" or the "service and worship of God or the super-
natural". However, many writers and scholars have
noted that this basic 'belief in god' definition fails to
capture the diversity of religious thought and experi-
ence.
There is no hope if you don’t have faith.
If the religions of the world taught the truth and had a good effect on society, why are they going to be destroyed, as the Bible says will happen? Rev.
18:21
they are a cause of division, war, strife, and hatred. And, more importantly, they keep the people in darkness regarding God and his purposes
Religion is a blessing on society.
Zoe: Religion is a brand new subject for me, when I get to know them; I realize that it can truly change one’s life because they teach you the right way to
live.
Mae: Religion is very cool, and you have to try it. Then see if god will make you believe.
Rowlin: religion is like a doctor for the society.
HOW DO YOU VIEW RELIGION’S EFFECT ON SOCIETY?
Islam
Islam
Islam is the second largest religion with 1.2
followers, called Muslims. This represents
nearly twenty percent of the world population.
Islam, like Christianity, has several branches.
The Sunni and Shi'ite are the two largest
branches. The Qur'an, or Koran, is the sacred
book of the Islam faith. It is believed to be the
word of Allah, the Arabic word for God, as
spoken to the prophet Muhammad. All Mus-
Christianity is by far the principal reli-
gion worldwide. More than 2.1 billion
people follow the Christian belief. That
is close to one third of the world popu-
lation. Christianity has dozens of de-
nominations, Baptist and Methodist be-
ing the two largest. Their most sacred
objects are the Old and New Testaments
of the Bible and the cross. Ten laws
called the Ten Commandments rule
Christianity
By Zoe Zhu
As far as what I am concerned, religion is a huge part of our society. The main
religion is Buddhism. It has a history of 2000 years in China, and each city has a
temple, no matter big or small. Luckily, my hometown Hangzhou, have a
famous temple called Linyin Temple, which is one of the largest and wealthiest
Buddhist temples in China, and contains numerous pagodas and Buddhist
grottoes. The citizens in Hangzhou will always come to the temple to pray,
especially during the exam season and Spring Festival. I remember there is a
time that I went to the temple to pray for our family on the first day of the
Chinese New Year, there are so many people that I can’t even see the Buddha,
which really annoys me. But I know that all of us want to live a healthy and
strong New Year because it’s a brand new start for all of us. Even more, I am so
happy to see that there are much more people at the Hall of the Medicine
Buddha because as for me, keeping healthy is my first goal on my every New
Year’s resolution. Like what Jesus did to heal people’s disease, we all think that
Buddha will help us go through this.
