Religion

Religion is a structured system of beliefs, practices, and values centered around questions of existence, purpose, morality, and the nature of the sacred or divine. It often encompasses various rituals, ethical guidelines, sacred texts, and communal practices that provide a framework for understanding and interpreting the world and one’s place in it. Religions typically involve a faith in a higher power or powers and may include various elements such as worship, prayer, meditation, and moral codes. They can serve to foster community, provide meaning to life events, and guide adherents in their daily lives. Major world religions include Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Judaism, among others, each with its own unique beliefs and traditions. Religion can also influence culture, law, and society as a whole.
