Religion

In my view, it would have been clearer about what is to be said, if first I define of word “religion.” Thus, religion is a special form of the world realization that based on the belief in the supernatural and includes a set of moral norms and behaviors, rituals, religious activities and to unite people in the organization ( like a church or religious community). Also, religion has the special important concepts such as good and evil, morality, meaning and purpose of life. At all times, starting from the first people to the present times, people believed in something. In ancient times was spread polytheism, which means belief in or worship of more than one god. However, the monotheism, which means belief in one god, more is spread in our time and it is characteristic of such religions as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism, and some other. I must say that religion has two aspects as the external that outside observer san see and the inside, which opens the believer who lives in accordance with the spiritual and moral principles of the religion. In our time almost all people can say that they religious persons, but just word it is not enough. In my view, it is not enough to be called a Christian(for example); you need to prove that by your life.
