Is religion necessary for humans?

If those humans want to be able to wage war against each other then they will need religion since it is just about the cause of all wars.
Money is a close second.

[bhabygrim]

Those who consider that human beings do not need a religion, are those who claim that there is no scientific evidence of God's existence, therefore, many people might be believing in something that is simply not real.

Another argument is that religious people have imposed a truth that may not be true, generating a whole system of false beliefs, prohibitions and rigid norms of behavior that have sometimes become excessive.

Those in favor of religion believe that their faith gives meaning to life and their beliefs drive them to be better people, therefore religion would provide many more benefits without doing harm.

RELIGION:

Is religion really necessary?

Religion is a system of human activity composed of beliefs and practices about what is considered as divine or sacred, both personal and collective, existential, moral and spiritual.


BELIEFS:

A belief is an idea that is considered true by the person who professes it.

Well explained this many people including myself we wonder: is it necessarily a belief agena my truth? And therefore should I become part of their system of practices ?.


THE INDIVIDUALITY OF THOUGHT:

In my personal case, I have come to think that there is nothing more healthy than the individuality of thought in terms of these issues, many people go there condemning others to a future full of suffering and pain in hell or the open for no Practice their beliefs, many have lost their homes and possessions most prized by fanatics who have filled their heads with "beliefs" and ideas agenas to theirs ...
The method used in many of the cases:


THE FEAR,

A clear example:

Pepito believes in a god or a higher being, he has his own vision of that being and is happy, sleeps peacefully, lives happy and knows what is good and is bad, (because let's face it: we all know that he is good and that he is Bad, we do not need a manual to identify this or in most cases it is so), until one day Peptio is met with a person who tells him not to go to church, not to read the bible, not to praise God, Not to give a tithe, and not to follow literally the thousand and one tips that the bible has and even those who contradict themselves, will go to hell and be judged severely by God. Since that day Pepito goes to church, he lives in fear, and is constantly harassed with feelings of guilt every time he makes mistakes ...

Now, is it happy pepito? Maybe the answer is: NO

People should be free to believe and think as they like, if we analyze things there are many religions and look, has the Hindu people been destroyed by God for believing in ganesha? Are Buddhists the victims of the lack of love of a creator ? Are simple questions with obvious answers, the answer is NO, these are people who with other points of view and other religions have obtained happiness or spiritual rest, why can not we be happy believing our way? Because they do not have their own god, or else they do not have a god.


RELIGIOUS MANIPULATION:

Religion to this day has been a system of manipulation of masses rather than a cult of love, where the believer is exploited financially, manipulated mentally, and their own beliefs are demonized, turning them into a means to produce panic to the population. The most clear is the holy inquisition, the enrichment of many Christian pastors, and the deprivation of individual freedom of thought in many alternative cults.

Regardless of the belief, people should always ask themselves in their lives if this makes them happy, if it makes them happy: Go ahead, they will do well, but if not why stay oppressed?

CONCLUSION

Be free, think, reason, if Christians say that God gave free will because he would punish us for using it ?, many Muslims were sold the idea that we must die for God and that is why so many people commit suicide in their name In wars to reach their love, the Jews are made to believe that they are the chosen people and that there is of the others then? And you know why? Because it is not really God who dictates this, it is MAN, it is not good to be oppressed by the ideas of others if they harm us.

I think somehow religion helps human to have their limits. With religion we were able to have our standard of norms and practices. People are bound and scared to commit something that they believe that is against religion and law. It kept people from doing something harmful and bad for themselves and others. It also helped people to get through when they are struggling.

I believe that religion is not needed for people. In religion, there is no such benefit that would lead a person to develop new technologies or cure diseases, religion only takes time.

[marinomario]

very necessary, if there is no religion then man no faith. if you do not believe in faith, then your life is just a blank. there is no hope of a creator, there will only be a sense of fear and you will become a human being who does not know the direction of your destination whether you become good or evil. just as you want to go somewhere, but you do not know where to go, then you will get lost on that road. but if you have faith, then a path will be seen because you believe in faith. it depends on you how to go about it. there are so many false religions, but it all depends on you who judge it's good or bad. because man has heart and mind

[yasher]

In a way, we may never know morality if religion was never introduced to us in the first place. All atheist and agnostics was once introduced to some kind of religion. If religion was never introduced to them, they would not call themselves an atheist or this and that.

I think religion plays a great role in keeping humanity and society in control. It limits and sets people rules of what is right and what is wrong. It somehow limits people's capability doing everything they can in their own will. It also gives people something to believe in and reason for them to keep going.

I would agreed to your statement, religion is not a gateway or open door going to heaven. Sometimes it becomes the reason to make people  do sins , due to the doctrines and sectarian does the church have. But belief in God is very needed not the religion f course.

[topse]

people has different opinion about raligion.
for me my self, it necessary so much.
i don't belive it without a reason, you know like i was looking for what about it.
how could many people belive it, and what the history of it.
the when the holy book tells everything about my religion and the history,
i got a peace .
and it's real manythings happened in this world as my holly book said.
i respect people who doesn't belive in religion,
but if you wanna try to find what in religion is, wha not you will get something new.

[Mr.Yoso]

For me religion is necessary for us human beings but i know some people that dont need it. They dont need it because they dont believe that god doesnt exist there is a saying that to see is to believe and some people dont need it because they will still exist in this world even if they dont have god, some people are believing because of the influence of their parents they born with religion thats why they continue to believe in that religion .

Religion propagates due to the brainwashing of the parents.   No one starts life without brainwashing and then later decides they believe in fairy tales.

Well those are good points. If you think about it, if we go down to the essentials, it doesn't require any complicated religious laws to be a good person. Love and respect should be at the core of it and religion sometimes just makes it difficult to love and respect other people.

[alboss]

Although religion offers plenty of life guidance tips that can help you a lot, today's modern society is taking advantage of it to promote it own bullshit and it does it all for the purpose of money and power. One particular person doesn't need a religion to be fulfilled if he lives his life with accordance to the rules that mostly all religions promote. But the same society doesn't let you live that kind of life and on the other hand, propagates that we need their repulsive religion to succeed in life.

[yakushev]

People do not need religion, people need faith. When a person believes in what he wants, then it is much easier for him to live. Religion establishes an outdated framework that prevents development.

[jakezyrus00]

In my own opinion if it is necessary for us to have a religion, I think it is not necessary. Because for me it does not matter if who are your God or who you are praising and believing. What matters the most is how deep is your faith, love and believe to the one you are praising.

[matuson]

Religion is only needed by the Church. Ordinary people will only suffer. I don't believe in God, but I do not see the difference between the lives of those who believe in God and those who do not believe in him. This is further proof that there is no God.

[phreeksta]

No, it is not. For some people it is an anchor, to get them through bad times (which is not a bad thing). But in general, religion is not needed.

[Jamie_K213]

Religion was a necessary thing in the past; I think today people just need something or someone they can believe in and it doesn't matter whether it would be an invisible guy in the sky or unverse, or bracelet on the arm.

[kie]

Religion is only needed to helps/guides human to act according to their beliefs. Its just a basis for their acts .

[achsan fauzy]

For men not religion is as a life, because no religion people will not find happiness clear.

[illicit]

Yes, religion is necessary in today's society. I believe that religion is necessary in today's society. There are so many problems in the world, ranging from violence to the breakdown of the family unit. Morals seem to be nonexistent any more. Our world has become more self-centered; it seems like people have no regard for others. Religion helps us have a moral code and gives us hope in what seems like a lost world.
