Religion has been around for centuries in its various forms- from belief in millions of gods to a belief in only one god. There are scriptures and writings in almost every religion, some claiming to be direct reveleations from god, others from inspiration and from writings of the respective teachers and disciples.
Many claim to be guided and I am sure many would have been "soothed"and "calmed"by their respective religion in their journey of life. Life indeed has many challenges and many times, one may feel that there is no hope for the obstacles, challenges and pain that one experiences as they try to live out their lives.
IN the process, they are comforted by their religion and the gods of their religion. Is this real or psychological?
The answer of course will depend on what the person believes in.
In any event, a religion is useless if it is unable to provide real solutions to life's real problems. It is equally useless if it is unable to create a majority of useful, emphatic and compassionate human beings.
Any religion that can only cause conflict between human beings without having the capacity to make living less of a burden cannot be a useful concept.
Think baout it and discover the Truth of Life for yourslef.
