Religion

Here comes one of the most controversial topics in our society......religion, a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a super human agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs according to Dictionary.com
There are over 79 different types of religion, which is not a shocker to me. I  personally feel that each human being is original and should be allowed to practice whatever spirituality they choose to help them throughout their life. My religion is Christianity, which was instilled in me at an early age. My grandmother would take me to church every Sunday , where I would praise and worship the Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.  I still rely on going to church on Sunday to hear spirtual gospel music, it cams me, it brings my soul at ease. One of my favorite songs is "Come on in The Room"  by The Georgia Mass Choir. The lady singing reminds me of my grandmother and greatmother in church and at home. I think religion is whatever gets you through life situations. Christianity is said to be the worlds largest religion, and the most contradicting as well. There are a lot of questions that arise about the bible for instance about the creation of religion.




Christians share a certain set of beliefs that they hold as essential to their faith, though there are many important differences of interpretation and opinion of the Bible on which Christianity is based.^[24]
The Ten Commandments are  set of basic profound instructions that instructs you on how to lead you to a moral life. 
Religion in its past was used by people in ways that benefited them. Slave owners would read bible scriptures to the slaves to give them something to look forward to. The words of the Lord watching over them and protecting them would give them hope that there would be better days coming for them. The slaves would use the Bible scriptures that were read to them as motivation to keep going. The slave owners did not care how the hard labor and abuse they  felt. They just needed something to keep their spirits lifted.  The maintenance of religion is truly up to the individual to be the judge, I do feel that some of the transcripts have been altered.






 The Bible was once written in Hebrew and is now translated in over 500 languages and it would be impossible for some of the details to be exactly the way it was written. I feel like even though Bible Scholars were said to have translated the bible the message has been distorted. I feel like in some cases it is best use your own judgement. I do however take Faith seriously. The individual needs to build personal relationship with God or whatever higher power they believe in and society should not judge.
