RELIGION-WHAT GOOD HAS IT DONE?

                                 RELIGION-WHAT GOOD HAS IT DONE?

                                        “Religion does not make man
                                                  But man makes religion”

So after some time I am back to my favourite topic of God and wherever there is god there is religion. The saying above says that man makes religion but in reality, we make a person’s religion to be important then the human. There are, many gods available with them many religions are also there. Some of the well-known religions are Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism and many others and many sub religions are there. Most of people on our planet follow some religion or other’ except people like me.





So as the title of the post says what good has following a religion has done for us? According to me nothing other than just making people stupid by bounding them to useless rules and making them follow something that has never existed but just in stories which now have so much importance because of the ridiculous need of an almighty and no one ever questioning it. Different religions are maybe there just to make a certain group of people feel better about them and thus making new gods and creating a religion around it just to better another god because human are the ones making the religion. Hindus have actually taken it to the point that they have created countless amounts of gods making no sense of their need. Religion most importantly has created a barrier between people and some take it rather too seriously leading to communal riots, honour killing and many other preposterous traditions.  Sub religions make matters worse, by further dividing people into various sects leading to discrimination by the majority leading to violence again.  It actually has increased intolerance of people towards someone different from them.  It also decreases the feeling of humanity in us making us more communal just be better than others.





I really hope that someday people let go of religion, turn into human beings, and be truly together. I also hope that people become a little smarter than they are no.
