Religion is Man's interpretation of God's mind.
It can be beauty exemplified, or vile in its ugliness. It takes the soul and consecrates faith or rends discontent. And it can inspire a person to perform the greatest deeds, or the most horrific crimes.
But it will always be flawed. The Mind of God is wholly unknowable.

Religion is a man made concept! Fortunately Jesus didn't come to establish a religion but to establish a RELATIONSHIP between man and God. My idea of religion is a set of rites which men carry out as their way of reaching God. Gods way of reaching man is through Jesus Christ as he is "the way"

My idea of religious is not being of an specific faith, but believing if you give your life to Jesus Christ and live it on a day to day basis, it is your religion. The first thing I do in the morning is pray and thank God for letting me wake up to another beautiful day. I pray sometimes several times a day. You have to find your time with God to pray and you have to know how to pray. You pray for the ones who are lost, sick and need God in their life. You can ask for things for yourself, but don't get petty with it. If you think God is going to give you everything you want, you are badly mistaken. The more your believe, the more abundant your life is. If you believe in him, he will not forsake you. It doesn't matter what religion you are. There is only one God and that is who we answer to. He is our Father and we should obey his word.

Religion is a complete way of life. Not just something you do when you feel like. Islam is a complete way of life. It covers areas of worship, spirituality & day-to-day activities. It is a completely logical religion & ANY question you might have regarding life, or life-after death, can be answered by islam. Don't take my word for it though, find out for yourself.

Religion is a way of controlling the uneducated masses. A way of keeping them docile through threats and fear. It is a way of preventing analysis of government policies and performance.
It has largely been superceded by the press and television but there are still some people who cling to the old ways, probably through fear of change.

Religion is a way of life; how to do everything. How to deal with people, work, eat, spend your money, choose your life partner, treat your parents, and also how to perform rituals to pay tribute to Allah.
Peace

A waste of time, because it is provably useless. Since the existence of God is an irrefutable theory, and it can be proved that an irrefutable theory has no predictive value, it follows that no religious theory can give useful guidance for any human activity.
